hello all,
I have recently been updating my pc and want to buy some new pcie cables, as the 8 - 8+6 cable i have at present for the msi 1080 gaming x rubs against the tempered glass on my meshify c and - somewhat less importantly - looks awful.
Instead of having one cable hitting the window on my case, I wondered if i could instead run two seperate cables from the gpu to the psu (one 8 pin and one 6 pin) for better aesthetics.
i know this would be fine on the gpu end, but i am more curious about the psu and whether it would support this. I have left a link to a picture of the psu inputs (if anyone could post any image showing where best to plug in seperate 8 pin and 6 pin pcie cables that would really help)

thank you in advance for any support!
