My power supply recently gave up, i need to buy a new one. It had a 24pin connected to the motherboard as usual, but it had a 2x4 pin connected as well. (To the motherboard) I was checking out power supplies but i cannot find with that additional 2x4 pin cable. I am wondering if you could give me some ideas. And even which power supply should i get? My pc: Motherboard: ASRock A320M Pro 4 , Proc: Ryzen 5 , Graphics Card: Nvidia 1050 Ti
 
2x4 is just a split 8 pin EPS12v connector. The only reason for it being split is to be compatible with older motherboards with the 4 pin P4 power connector dating back to the mid 2000s.

You don't need a split connector. Pretty much every modern PSU is going to have at least one EPS12v. Just make sure you don't plug the PCIe 8 pin connector into the motherboard. Some genius decided to key both connectors in a way which they're interchangeable, but have inverse polarity.
