I have a Corsair CX600M and I want to replace the PCIe cable with this. I run a GTX 660 Ti with two 6 pins, and the power supply needs a "pigtail" cable to run two PCIe connectors off one PSU side connector.

 

Will this cable work?

While it says "CXM series" is it a single PCIe or a double? I know it's compatible, I didn't know if it is a splitter cable or not.

So the point of this purchase is to use just one type 3 slot on the psu and just one cable leading to the GPU?

Is it called a Type  3 Slot?

The power supply comes with one PCIe modular socket. corsair-cx600m-psu_connectors.jpg

 

I need 1:2 PCIe out of the power supply. If it's 1:1 then it won't work. A 1:2 came stock, so it's designed to work this way, I want to know if this cable will work, since all the fully sleeved modular kits are all single and not pigtail.
