Can I join the 4+4 pin CPU to make an 8 pin

[skyfire52]

I'm building my first pc and currently trying to connect the 2 4 pin connectors with CPU on the side. I can get one of them in but I can't manage to get the other in. Is there a way to put them together so they can be plugged in as 1 8pin?

There is a little clip that holds them together on one of them for just this purpose.

Where? I can't see anything on it to help put them together

There's usually 2 little pegs sticking off the side one of them that holds the other from popping up.

You just kinda have to hold them together in the right manner when plugging in both at once.
