Mobo power question

Currently doing a build with a Ga-ex58-ud3r and I ran into a little stump. The mobo calls for 2x4 atx power. My PSU only has one 4 pin atx cable, but it also has an 8 pin eps cable. Can/should I use the eps connector on my board, or just hook up the one atx and have 4 pins blank? Tried searching for this but got nothing but shady/unconvincing answers.

    As far as I know the 2x4ATX and EPS connectors are the same thing. You should be good to go hooking the EPS supply from your PS up to that 2x4 connector on the motherboard.
