Hi, I have a seasonic 1250. The R9 295x requires each 8 pin connection to have 28 amps. Can I use one cable with two 8 pin connections or should I use two cables and use one connection on each. I want to use one cable but I don't want to damage the card. Thanks.

David

If each modular cable contains 2 x 8 pin PCIe connectors, it has sufficient wire size to handle the full 150W + 150W (25 amp) that the spec requires. Seasonic doesn't skimp on wire size. You can feel confident using a single cable.
