Lol, what a solution. Crazy build. I wouldn’t worry too much about thermals. Even 80-90°C should be still acceptable, with the card only throttling above 90
In the end i managed by adding two fans under the desk. And wiring them through a switch to one of the free MOLEX. Now it never goes over 77°C. Even at full tilt
The wiggle room on the actual pins saved you :-).
I’m frankly surprised lenovo didn’t change pinouts between versions. They are more than capable of that.
It’s literally a cpu power connector. If you can solder and you have a scrap psu you can jerry rig a new cable. Hell. i made a whole wire loom out of one of those sata ports.
