Hi Everyone,

I have a Cooler Master V650 PSU & a ASUS ROG STRIX X470-F GAMING Mother Board, when I plug in the CPU Power Cable (4+4 Pin), I find it was not match with the MB Connector? I can only plug in 4 Pin, another 4 Pin was not the same shape on the MB. I can power up the computer with only plugging in 4 pin and leave the other 4 pin hang there.

I have also try to borrow a 4+4 Pin cpu cable for Cooler Master V1000 PSU from a friend, and the cable was match the MB Connector (all 8 Pin), but the strange thing was I can't power up the computer will all 8 Pin Connected?

So now I'm running the computer with only plugging in 4 out of 8 Pin for CPU Power, will that be causing any problem in long term? or I have done something wrong/ missing something?

Thanks!

Not sure what youve done it should fit. look at the socket and plug, youll see its segmented into square and half rounded plugs.
You should be fine with just 4 at stock speed. i wouldn't overclock it
