I know thats a simple question but I have never had a motherboard with 2 ATX connections or a PS with 2 ATX connectors .
What does the manual say?

The ASUS manual states:

use either a 4-pin ATX +12v or an 8-pin EPS +12v power plug for the ATX12v connector

I take that to mean just use the 4-pin connector and not both as that is not an 8-pin EPS +12v?
