Connecting a 24 pin PSU to 10 pin Motherboard

[AlMiguelS]

I got a new PSU, but without thinking clearly. It has a 24 pin motherboard connector(detachable 4 pin), while my motherboard only takes 10 pin. The pins align perfectly, so I went ahead and plugged it in, but it doesn't click(meaning it can be pulled off easily without pushing down on the tab). Is there any risk in doing this? Is the PSU I am trying to install going to be too much for what my mobo can handle?

I am a very inexperienced person when it comes to this. Please dumb down your tech vocabulary for me!

No clue what the motherboard is. I do know that it is made by lenovo, however.
I5 6400
GT 730
250W PSU from Acbel, no other info on it so kinda questionable
Lenovo Motherboard that uses a 10 pin connection

I am trying to install a Corsair CMX 750W, which utilizes an 8 pin CPU connector(can be split into 4 pin, so probably no problem there) and a 24 pin mono connector with a detachable 4 pin.

Good luck.

Sorry about that. Its my first time using this site, and I made some grave mistakes on the first and second, so I just pulled them from the tags. I took a look at this very forum already though, the one you put up for me. I might try using a second PSU to power my GTX 970. That's probably a better bet than buying adapters and all of that stuff. I don't even know if thats a thing, but fingers crossed, I really hope it works out in the end.

That's alright.

Yes, that is a thing. It's not recommended of course, but people do it. Research how to online. Personally I would just bite the bullet and buy the adapter if it isn't ridiculously expensive.
