Why useless? 1541-II/1581/CMD all take +12/+5. |

Generally ATX PSUs supply only +5V over molex connectors. Since the C64 needs +12V as well, this does seem a bit useless.
Of course, I might be wrong.

The yellow wire of the 4-pin Molex connector is +12VDC.

The molex to din4 cable is cleary for drive power, if you followed the link. I have no clue why people are bringing C64 into the discussion, these cables aren't for C64 power.
