I've just got my hands on a second hand Cooler Master V1000 real cheap, however it doesn't come with any cables and I have to look up every where to get the right cables. Its been quite an adventure.

Finally, it comes down to the 6-pin GPU ports, can I use the cable from the link below, PCI-E 6pin Male to Dual Male PCIE 8pin (6+2pin) Graphics Video Card Power Cable, to power the GPU from the 6-pin connection?

Keep an eye when rig mining, touch the cable after 5 minutes, if it hot, turn off ur rig immediately. It may cause explosive

You can use that, go on.
I've looked at the link, and I think what matters here is the cable's quality.
Those looks good imo.
Dividing one 6-pin into dual(2) 8 pins might overload the wires causing an overheat.
But that's only the worst case scenario if the actual product is not as fine as what is displayed.

If you will use it the other way around (which you intended), you don't have to worry about overheating cables.
Just make sure that only one (not both) 8-pins was connected to your PSU. Or things can go haywire.
