Where do I plug the 4+4 pin cable in to on my PSU

Hi,
I am starting first build but I have got a bit confused where to plug the 4+4 pin wire. The PSU I am using is the Corsair RM650x. I have linked to a picture below.

Do I plug it into one of the 3 sockets below the 6+2 PCI-E and 4+4 CPU or is one of them specifically for the 4+4 wire

Many thanks in advance, I really dont want to screw this up

Were it says 6+2 PCIe and 4+4 CPU.

Use the one that is free.

Well I think the cable should be a solid 8pin on one end and a 4+4pin on the other. You would plug in the solid 8pin where it says 4+4CPU on the top right of the PSU. You would then plug the 4+4pin into the CPU power port of your motherboard, probably on the top left of the board. Depending on your board you will use only a 4pin or both of the 4pins, if there is an 8pin slot on the board you would use both 4pins connected.
