EPS 8 pin Power Requirements for 980 ti Gaming g1

EPS 8 pin Power Requirements for 980 ti Gaming g1

Hi,

I'm planning a build with two 980 ti Gaming g1 cards in SLI and the x170 Gaming g1 motherboard.  This requires 5 x 8-pin EPS 12V connections all up (2 for each 980 ti + 1 for mobo).  The best connectivity I've been able to find on a PSU is 2 x 8-pin EPS.  This would need a 3 way split and a 2 way split to supply all connections.  Is this sound/safe assuming a quality UPS (CorsairAX1200i is what I'm looking at).  Alternatively is there any (quality) PSU with better connectivity?
