So basically on my motherboard for the cpu there is a 4 pin connector that delivers the power from the power supply, recently I invested in a Corsair VS550W PSU. On that PSU it has an 8 pin connector to power the cpu, but on my motherboard there is a 4 pin connector. I can not find any converters that will go from my 8 pin connector from the PSU to the 4 pin on the motherboard. Please send me a link for some of the connectors, please make sure they are not from China as they will take ages to arrive. Thank you!
 
Solution
If the 8 pin connector does not split, you are still ok.
Just insert 1/2 of the 8 pin lead.
It is keyed to fit only one way.
