I do not understand the 4 rails.
Is it more efficient or clean to use separate rails?
The 12 volt pwr needs to use 2 rails to deliver 600W, so those 2 rails will be connected by the GPU to become 1 rail.
The same goes when using 3x 8 pins for a GPU, they will all just get connected to become one common rail in the GPU.
