EVGA 1070 Ti Ultra Silent (2 x 8-pin power connectors)
Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 750W
The card came with two 8-pin to 2 x 6-pin cables (see similar pic - https://ibb.co/fF506L ), which threw me. I started wondering if my research was crap, as I was expecting 8-pin connectors to the PSU.
It's a moot point, as the PSU comes with two PCI-E cables, and each has 8-pin to 2 x 6+2-pin connectors (one looks more of a slave - similar pic here - https://ibb.co/d7qgff ). Presumably the two cables are for potential SLI setups.
Would I be better using both cables (two PCI-E plugs on the PSU) to the two 8-pin plugs, and ignore the slave connectors, or is there no discernible difference, power-wise if I use a single cable to power both 8-pins?
