I just upgraded to a Ryzen 2600x and I noticed the motherboard has 2 8pin CPU sockets, cpu_pwr1 and cpu_pwr2. My PSU (which is only a couple of years old) only has one 8 pin socket. Reading the manual it doesn't mention that both need to be plugged in. The computer has turned on just using the one, but will I run in to trouble doing this?
