Ok so I have been wondering this for about a week now and can't find a definite answer anywhere.
So here it is is it better to use the dual 6+2 pin cable that came with my rm750 PSU OR use two cables from the PSU both being dual 6+2 pins but only using one cable for a 6 pin and the other or a 6+2 pin?
I know that its fine to use one cable and just leave one 2 pin hanging.
Any answer is apperciated.
Thank you

Tawoombie.

It shouldn't matter, it's only got 1 rail and will output the required power to whatever cables you plug in.

i7baby is correct.. It doesn't matter you use single PCIe cable with short loop connecting to graphic card to two PCIe cables.

Here is sample of card with PCIe 8-pin & 6-pin plug:
