I opened my pc case and discovered that the other half for the 8 pin cpu power disconnected. I don't know for how long but Ive been playing games and ocing the cpu and still ran fine. Can someone explain why? Im a bit confused why it still ran. A year ago I had this happened, which caused my machine to not power on at all.

Thats interesting and new. Does that apply to all processors? Im running an amd.
