Question PCIe cable

[Newbuilder1]

I have a corsair RM750 and a Asus 4050 that only requires one 6+2 cable. My psu came with the 6+2 pigtails. Is it possible to use the non pigtail end to plug into the GPU and the end with the additional 6+2 pigtail into the PSU for a cleaner look?

Are you sure about that GPU? Got a link to the GPU? How old is the PSU in question and what did it power throughout it's tenure?

You're advised to have standalone harnesses from the PSU terminate at the GPU for the sake of reliability;

There are other sources, depicting the same suggestion.

Adapters and pigtails have been known to be the cause of damaged hardware or fires.
