Quick, mid-build question (PSU to GPU cabling)

Do the PSU cables marked "VGA" go into my GPU? I jhave one cable coming from the PSU which ends in a 8pin and 6pin lug, both of which fit snuggly into the GPU's equivalent 8 and 6 pin sockets. I am worried that the two plugs are on the same cable, and also that I have an 8pin PSU cable left over. 

Any help?

They go into the GPU yes. EPS s for CPU and VGA is meant for GPUs.

Did it, turn it on for the first time. And it didn't explode!!! Wow, the rig actually works!!! Windows is installing now. I can't believe it actually works. My first build. Amazing!
