RE: Congratulations on this important step! A wild idea...

Ryelands is right. All leads of the same voltage are internally connected inside the MB, same for the ATX PS. Pin 1,2,12,13 for 3,3V, Pin 4,6,21,22,23 for 5V and Pin 10,11 for 12V. The multiple pins or wires are designed to share large current. Hence, the wild idea won't work. Connecting or disconneting the last 4 Pins in P24 will not make any difference to current consumption at all.
