![]() In other words the right part of the right connector is universal all-beveled design, so it can be used as the right part or as a (standalone) left part. or to up to two separate 4-pin sockets (each can strictly fit the left part of the right connector).to a single 8-pin socket (that can also strictly fit the left connector, this is what you want to do, I believe),.There’s no trick aside from lining up the notch on the connector with the guide on the header. 8-pin motherboard auxiliary connector A connector on the motherboard used to provide additional power to the processor other than that provided by the P1 connector or the earlier 4-pin auxiliary connector. This is attached to the three or four-pin fan header on the motherboard. By making the 4+4 part the way it is, they made it possible to connect the right connector: As typical motherboard fan connector is a three or four-pin connector attached to the end of a PC fan’s wire. 8 pin EPS12V power cable 8 pin PCI Express power cable Besides the name and the color, these 2 connectors look the same. If you need to connect an 8-pin socket to an 8-pin socket, it shouldn't matter though. Each PCI Express 8-pin connector can output a maximum of 150 W. However, some motherboards may have a 6-pin or even 10-pin connector. The right connector (4+4) is the one you connect to the motherboard. Auxiliary power connectors: There are several types of auxiliary connectors. A motherboard’s CPU auxiliary power connection normally has four or eight pins. These are not the same and not at all compatible. ![]() There are also PCIE auxiliary power headers rarely, but occasionally found on MBs these would be 8 pin, configured either as 8 pin or 6+2 pin. This is most likely what you have on your board. ![]() The left connector (8) is the one you connect to the PSU. There are 8 pin CPU connectors, typically configured as either 8 pin, or 2x4. Refer to the user manual of your PSU to confirm this. When processors began to require more power, the ATX Version 2.1 specifications added a 4-pin motherboard auxiliary. The bottom pins are connected with black cables and are designed for GND. I guess the upper pins (the terms "upper", "lower", "left" and "right" refer to your original photo) are connected with yellow cables and are supposed to transmit +12V. ![]()
