Is the MSI X470 AMD gaming plus motherboard compatible with the EVGA 750 G3 power supply? And if so how do I connect it!!
 
Solution
That PSU is compatible to the MSI x470 gaming plus.

The EVGA has 2x8 pin ( 4+4) cpu cables, don't use the pcie 8pin (6+2) cables, because the MB has 1x 8pin + 1x4pin connectors for the cpu. If you don't use the 2700x and oc it like crazy, you can just plug in the 8pin cable, but don't hurt to plug in both of them, the 8pin + the 4pin one.

More detail you can read the MB manual. https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/X470-GAMING-PLUS
Yes it is compatible. You will connect the 24-pin ATX from the PSU to the motherboard, and then also connect the 4+4-pin CPU/EPS from the power supply to the motherboard above the CPU, and then I see there is the optional 4-pin CPU/EPS connector beside that you can also connect if you want with one of the 4-pin on the second 4+4-pin CPU/EPS connector from the power supply.
