PSU Cable Question

[BrandonMcGowan79]

Hi so I am a first time builder and have finished my build, I am looking at cablemod and really like them when I did the configuration for custom lengths I couldn't make the dual 6+2pin for my graphics card in different colors so my question is can I just use 2 8pin instead of a dual 6+2.

@BrandonMcGowan79 the Dual 6+2 is one PSU end connection that splits into a double GPU connector setup. (Photo attached)
The reason you're unable to edit the colors on the second cable is because they carry over from the first cable actually.

For a cleaner aesthetic though, single PCI-E cables, or our bridged PCI-E cables look better, the dual cables are more so meant for PSUs with few connectors available or SFF builds where space is limited.
