I just bought an Asus 9070XT overclocked and bought a new PSU an MSI MAG A850GL. The card needs 3x8 inputs. I've 2 cables with 4 connectors 2 and 2 piggy backed. Is it OK to use a piggy backed cable for 2 of the 8 pin and a one side of a piggy baked cable for the other.
Unsure if that's ok or not. Worried about power draw. Intel 245 cpu.

Thanks in advance.
 
Fine, I'd bet most people do something similar.

It'll probably use about 370w at max (according to techpowerup) and that PSU is more than capable.
