Hello

 

Im trying to figure out what cable to put into this port.

It is 4pin right next to a 8 pin port.

 

But the only cables that comes with my PSU are a 6 + 2 PCIe and 4.

Usually CPU power cables are 4+4. 6+2 are for the GPU. Anyway, you only have to use 8pin connector unless you're doing some mad OC on 9900k.

 

What power supply do you have btw??

No its a great PSU. If you bough it you should have 4+4 CPU cable, use that.

Don't plug 6+2 in there! Only 4+4 is the right plug.

The plugs are actually stupid proof on motherboards. The motherboard 8-pin power cord connector will not plug in to a PCI-e 8-pin connector plug in. PSU makers changed this because people used to do that & fry their systems.
