My card needs 16 pins (8 x 2) to be powered.
My PSU (RM650x) has a cable which is 8-pin to 6+2 (x2). Which is 8pin to 16pins. Is this an acceptable way to power the 1070? Or does the source end need to have 16 pins as well?
I could run it as 8 -> 6+2 twice, but I'm wondering if the split will work (since one cable is a lot nicer than 2!)
Thanks!

thanks for clarifying! I suspected as much but I didn't want to provide too little power! Thank you!
