I'm thinking of getting this unit but what worries me is that it only has one PCI-E cable with two connectors instead of two separate cables. The only issue is Seasonic's website recommends that you use two separate pci-e cables for gpus over 225w but only include one in the box. I'm surprised by this, even my Corsair 450HX came with two separate cables back in the day. Does that mean this psu is not suitable for gpus over 225w?
