Hey,
I'm upgrading my old computer to the new Haswell-E platform (Rampage 5 + i7-5820k + Ripjaws 4 @ 3000) wich will be shipped in a week or so, my question is will my PSU support it? As I saw in the pictures and some reviews, the Asus mobo has 2 connectors for the CPU, an 8pin and a 4pin. Do i need to connet the PSU to both of those connectors or just 1? (Note: PSU has 2x4pin CPU connectors << 8 pin split in two >>)

I will change the PSU at the end of April when I'll buy a new GPU aswell but I want to know if I will be able to run the system until then.

Old (current config):
PSU: Xilence XP600 (600W 80+ gold)
Mobo: AsRock G41C-GS
CPU: Intel Dual Core E7600 @3.06 stock, 3.33 OC-ed
GPU: Geforce GTX
8Gb of DDR3
2 DVD writers (only using one of them)
SSD: 120Gb Hyperx 3K
HDD: 1 Tb Hitachi
Crappy sound card, not gonna need it anymore on the new mobo.
1x15 or 14 mm front panel fan
1x12 mm rear fan
Xilence after market cooler @120 mm

Sorry for bad english.
