Question about Molex cable

Hi Everyone, for my PC, it has a built in LED logo and to power it I have to use the PERF cable or Molex cable to attach it to my PSU. But I also have the NZXT hue+ and that requires a molex cable to power it. Am I supposed to use a double molex cable and attach it to my PSU to power both since my PSU only has one PERF slot?

So do you advice that I get a double molex or 2 single molex. I'm getting custom sleeved cables fyi.

Double so that there is less cable clutter.

Hey @Tweed check out the CableMod configurator page where you can make a dual Molex connection by color and to your desired length.
