Modular Power Leads That Split Into Two Plugs

[Sceptr]

I have a Corsair HX1000i PSU and a MSI RTX 2080 TI to power which has two 8 pin slots and one 6 pin slot.

The PCIe cables with my PSU have one 8 pin plug (type 3) to the PSU on one end and two optional 8 or 6 pin plugs on the other end.

My question, can i have one 8 pin plug cable into my PSU and use the two 8 pin options on the other end of the cable to put into the two 8 pin plug holes on the graphics card which would be one cable used.
Then use a second cable to put into the 8 pin PSU plug and use one of the two optional 6 to 8 pin plugs remaining into the 6 pin plug hole on the graphics card which would be two cables used altogether.
Or use three cables from the PSU so it has three dedicated cables for the three plugs on the graphics card?

I hope i make sense here.

4+4 is for eps cpu power
6+1 is pci-e gpu power

they both total 8 pins, but are not keyed the same and have different pinouts

you can use chains that share power for the gpu

Yes 4+4 is for eps cpu power.
Solid 8 pin or 6+2 pin is for gpus, yes you can use all connections available at the same time, just like how your sata is one psu side plug that expands out to multiple sata connectors for powering drives or other devices, all plugs can be used at the same time

I'm now confident i can use the two plugs on one end to the graphics card and the single plug on the other end in the PSU now, thank you for your help guys.
