You need 4 separate 8 pin power cables plugged into the adapters that come with the cards.

afaik you only need 2 of those pictured, because each 1 splits into 2 at the gpu end, giving 4 separate 8 pin connectors that plug into the gpu adapter.

dailsy chaining power connectors on these cards, what could go wrong

Nothing will go wrong. Its a myth created by garbage psus. As long as its 16awg cable it will easily handle 400W on 1 daisy chained cable if needed.
The same cable is rated for 366W for CPU.

But why MSI for 4090 gives adapter with 3xpcie 8pin for the psu while Seasonic has with x2 8pin

Because it is not the same 8 pin.

 

[Vigorito]

Elaborate,sesonic gives one kind of pin and msi gives another kind of 8 pin :

It could be a lower power card.
When the 3090s came out. There was the high power ones with 3X8 pin, and lower power ones on 2X8 pin.
The 3X8 pin ones overclocked better.

Suprim x 4090 is not lower power card
