[SOLVED] Asus z490 motherboard extra 4pin cpu power need to oc?

[Drilltaco38]

Hi I was looking building a intel based gaming computer but I want to reuse some parts from my current system one being corsair rm650x 80+ gold rated fully modular psu but the only thing is that it only comes with 1 8pin cpu eps power. I was looking at the z490 motherboards from asus but all of them have a extra 4pin or 8pin eps power plug that my psu doesn't have. I was also looking to overclock a i5 10600k, but is it required to have that extra eps power plug or can I use the standard 8pin eps plug.

Just use the 8 pins. The more 4 pins is required if you do some extreme overclocking.
