Pentium G4560 max power usage And using 4pin cpu in 8pin

[Jonas_36]

hello, i read in the intel's ark that g4560 can take up to 54watts in average.does that exceed 95 watts on full load?
and if i were to use 4pin cpu connector in 8pin motherboard, where exactly should i plug the connector?
thanks in advance

and how much power does 4pin cpu connector provide?

No I don't think so. The ceiling of the Pentium G4560 is 54W, It shouldn't really ever exceed that by more than 10%. Idle power draw is probably between 5W and 10W.

to my knowledge a 4pin EPS provides 144 watts.This is plenty enough even for an i7 cpu so don't worry about it.
g4560 goes up to 57w max load

where should i place my 4 pin in that 8 pin slot? there are 3 ways of putting it in it! please help

usually it only fits on the far right side it won't fit anywhere you want.
