I have the Be quiet! Dark power 12 850W PSU which comes with two cables labeled "P8" one that splits into 2x4 and one that is 1x10 pin (with two middle slots empty) on the motherboard side. My motherboard (GigabyteAorus PRO AX) has an 8 and a 4 pins sockets for CPU ( i7 11700k). How the is the CPU supposed to be connected - I dont think the cable 1x10 fits either 8-pin or 4-pin? The PSU is not supplied with enough cables to connect everything perhaps?
