Somewhat noobish PSU question.

I have an Antec TPQ-850W PSU. I just can't say no to a GTX280 anymore and I hope to be ordering one from the Egg sometime next week.
Anywoot, the GTX280 requires a 6 pin and an 8 pin connection. My PSU has 2 of both but my question is; Does it matter which 8 pin and 6 pin connector I use? Or do I just plug which ever one I grab first in?

Thanks all.
 
Use the two fixed PCIe connectors and not the modular ones.

That actually splits the load up between +12V3 and +12V4 (not that you need to, but still) and keeps the chassis clean inside by not having extra cables hanging off the PSU.
