I am looking to purchase some sleeved PCI-E cables to support a dual 8-pin video card.

My HX650 came with a 6pin female to 6+2pin x2 female. Essentially, one cable supports a dual 8-pin GPU.

I am looking at ForzenCPU and MODDIY to have a custom cable done. MODDIY said they can't produce a cable like the one I mentioned, only a 6pin female to 6+2pin x1 female. I have not yet gotten word from FrozenCPU.

Is MODDIY wrong? If my HX650 came with a 6pin to 6+2pin x2 anyone should be able to replicate it correct?

On the other hand, my HX650 has two 6pin male ports for PCI-E cables. Should I just get two 6pin female to 6+2pin female instead of 6pin female to 6+2pin x2 female? Is there any benefit or safety issue with either?
 
It only came with that one PCI-E cable? All the information I can find on the HX650 shows it comes with two individual 8-pin-to-6+2-pin cables.
 
So you have the 80+ Bronze then? And want sleeved instead of ribbon cables?
 
It came with two 6pin to 6+2pin.

Yes, i want sleeved rather than ribbon.
