Sorry if the title is kind of confusing but here is the situation. I have never before seen a cable like this before but my recently purchased EVGA g2 550w pus came with a vga cable that has both a 6pin and a 6+2pin picee power connector on one single cable. Jonnyguru's review of the unit has a picture and describes exactly what I am talking about you can see it about two thirds of the way down the page here...

My question is... Can I use this one single cable to power an R9 390 that requires both a 6 and 8 pin pcie power? Would it provide enough juice for this gpu or do I need to use the second pci-e cable came with the power supply which is a 6+2. I hope it makes sense what I am trying to explain and I would really appreciate any help that can be given.
It may seem silly but id really like to use just the single cable. Then I would not have an additional power cable running around my case. Especially since one of them will have an additional connector just dangling off of it being useless.
Thanks!
