Inside the Box lists one dual 8-pin cable, one single 6+2-pin cable, two SATA cables and one peripherals cable. The dual 8-pin cable has a 16-pin plug at the PSU end, so it counts as PCIe 8-pin with 2 plugs. The manual lists the 12V-2x6 cable as option 1 and the 6+2-pin or dual 8-pin cable as option 2, and the dual 8-pin cable plugs into the 12V-2x6 socket on the PSU. The lengths are the maker's. Wire gauges and the 600 W rating of the 12V-2x6 cable come from Cybenetics and the overview text (a 600W 12V-2x6 connector). Cybenetics lists 475 mm and 105 mm for the same cables. It counts the dual 8-pin cable as 2 cables, which is not used.
