[SOLVED] Should I use one cable from my PSU to GPU or 2.

I'm using a Cooler Master Masterwatt 750w bronze and a MSI 2070 S for my PC. When I installed it I used one split cable to connect it to the PSU and that connected to the 8 and 6 pin on the GPU. I haven't had many issues in intense games, I can run at whatever fps I need to, however I usually manually cap it at 120. Regardless, I saw a post that detailed low fps and it was because they only used one cable from PSU to GPU rather than two. I'm not suffering from low fps but should I use a second cable instead of just one?

Shouldn't matter, since both cables will run on the same power rail.
