So I've pretty much finished building my pc and just have a few more cables that I'll be adding after this. Anyway.. My graphics card gtx 970 has an 8 pin and a 6 pin thingy ( dont know the name). My power supply has a pre added cable that has got 2 8 pin (connectors?) that can also be 6 pin. But they are both from the same cable. Do I need to run another cable from the power supply to the graphics card or can I use the same cable with both the connectors on it?
