Well everytime you add a converter, you lose a little power, so you do not want to use them if you can avoid it, especially if your running a a mb that needs a lot of power. I am sure there is a converter out there for it you can use, search a site like new egg or even try going to the Molex website. Interesting though, I didn't know UK only uses Molex connectors.
