Im running a mining farm with 48 of these PSUs for the past 8 months, and none of them have failed, you get ample power, and running 6 cards on each.
So for these psu's they have 12 PCIE cables? Should I connect it something like this:

PSU # 1
atx
cpu
PCIE1 = gpu1
PCIE2 = riser 1
PCIE3 = riser 2
PCIE4 = riser 3
PCIE5 = riser 4
PCIE6 = riser 5
PCIE7 = riser 6
PCIE8 = riser 7
PCIE9 = riser 8
PCIE10 = riser 9
PCIE11 = riser 10 & 11 (splitter)
PCIE12 = riser 12 & 13 (splitter)

PSU # 2
PCIE1-6 = gpu2-7

PSU # 3
PCIE1-6 = gpu8-13
