RM 850E Power supply has only 4 and 4 pin for CPU

[Carel]

New rm850e has only CPU cable with 4pin, instead of 4 and 2 pin for my motherboard, ASUS 690 P-D4.

Any solutions ?

the 8 pin connector on the motherboard side can be split to 4 pins. It's a 4+4 connector.

its a 4 and 2 pin on the motherboard

hmmm usually it's 8 pin and 4 pin. are you refering it by just one row?

the EPS12V cables are split connectors, with two 4 pin snapped together.

If you need to connect the extra 4 pin of the mobo, just separate the connector on the cable and plug the half that fits (they are keyed)

It's rare to have CPUs that need the extra 4 pin anyway.

I have 2 cables marked as CPU, both cannot be split, but i need one 4pin and separate 2 pin.

you can see it in left upper corner

well in practice you only need the 8 pin one, even with a 13900k.

But all CPU cables should split as 4+4. Make sure you have the right end on the PSU. the one that does not split is on the power supply, the ends that splits goes on the motherboard.

THX, for your advice
