If your PSU has the 8-pin connector, then it is a good idea to use it.
Since your CPU peak power won't go abobe 85W and the 4-pin could provide at least 100W then it should work.
It will depend on the motherboard supported wattage over the 4-pin connector.
Not having enough power for the CPU can lead to instability, blue screens, system shuts down or system unable to power on.
It is recommend to have a reliable PSU that can also support the power of your PC components.
Cheaping out on a PSU could end up costing more if it happens to damage a vital component of you computer.
Yes, it should work just fine with the 8-pin power connector.MY mobo is Asrock B550 phantom Gaming 4 it has 8 pin CPU (12V1) and 4 pin (12v2) Im currently plugging my cpu pin to 8 pin Right now, will it work for a long time??
