Hallo, 
I have a server motherboard which has two 8 pin connector's and it has 2 CPU sockets which I am attending to use. Is it possible to use the two 4 pin connector's that can snip together my PSU has and split them on both 8 pin connectors on my motherboard?

The board Supermicro X8dtn+

I appreciate every help

probably it might work, but there is a reason why it has double 8 pin connector, it migh require more power for the cpus

If there's 2 separate 8-pin blocks for CPU power you NEED to have a PSU with 2 cables.
