I’ve used an extra PSU to power a graphics card. Things weren’t properly compatible, so I had to improvise a bit.
When you start the computer, you also need to use a paper clip to start the second PSU, because otherwise the graphics card will scream in terror until you give it the power it demands. It was probably the most ghetto style computer I’ve ever had.
If you’ve never run a computer with a PSU hanging out the side powering your extra hard drives have you even lived?

Hell, I once ran a PC regularly with parts strewn all over my desk.
Gotta poke everything a bit to make sure it’s still working, and what’s better than a hot soldering iron for poking?
