I saw this picture while looking at overclocking guides and I wondered if I may have my power setup incorrectly. My GPU is currently connected exactly like the don’t do this diagram.

Yeah this person you are replying to is wrong. Using two lines where possible is a best practice, but in most cases isn’t necessary at all. This diagram was created by a specific PSU manufacturer I think, and should only pertain to their PSUs.
