Hello! Now I am building my first PC and I just want to ask about graphics card installation - my GPU have two 8 pins additional power supply, at my PSU there is special 6+2 pin connection with "6+2 PCI-E" title. In PSU box there is a cable with 8 pin input and with two 6+2 pin outputs on there other side of the cable. Can I just put in 8 pin input to PSU "6+2 PCI-E" output and connect other two 6+2 pin outputs of the cable to each 8 pin GPU power supply? Or ot needed to connect each 8 pin GPU power supply to different PSU 8 pin output? So, how can I do this if there is only one "6+2 PCI-E" output at PSU?

And I have second dumb question - at PSU there is output with "4+4 CPU" title. I need simply connect this output with 8 pin EATX input at my motherboard with "8 pin - 8 pin" cable? I heard somewhere that sometimes you need to connect EATX with only 4 pins instead of 8 pins.

P.S. Sorry for my English.
