Additional GPU power connectors for T5820
I have a 950W T5820 that I want to add a Nvidia Titan card to in addition to the original Quadro which requires additional power connectors. The required cable has a male 10-pin connector on one end and 6 and 8-pin(6+2) on the other end (according to tech support) . Tech support gave me their part number as P94J9. The spare parts people however can't find such a cable. I see on ebay there are very similar looking cables for HP systems and if the 10-pin connector is standard perhaps one might work.
Does anyone know if these cables are available from Dell? I'm in Australia.
Thanks.

The HP connector is wired different and can blow your system.
Nowadays is easy to find this cable to sale.

Felipe, what do you mean? Do you mean that nVidia cards from HP workstations have different pinout? I believed that it is in ATA standard, the pinout for AUX PCI-E divices, and it is unchanged by vendors, unless HP wants to manufacture a proprietary cards with mixed up pins...Why would the want that; it is Apples's approach.
I checked, HP Proliant PSU side connectors are different, and have 3V... it is like any proprietary PSU side connector. They have different keying and will not fit. But you can take 12V from just anywhere. It is usually on the same transformer winding, and the power is the same as for all devices. Taking it from parallel GPU is unreasonable just because of long wires may overheat. But you can take them from ATA.
