Bitfenix Whisper M 750w other 4+4 pin?

[Arceus Darceus]

So I want to build a new gaming PC with an i7 9700K and Maximus XI Code as it's Motherboard. And in the spec of Maximus XI Code it says that it need another 4 pin power connector. So i search for a PSU that have it. According to pcpartpicker, Bitfenix Whisper M have it. But from what i can see, there is no additional 4+4 pin power connector. So from what i can gather from the cables that are included is that should i put the additional 4+4 pin to the VGA2 power connector or what? I'm new to this kind of stuff. I don't want it to explode. Thank you.

You can plug the CPU cables into the VGA sockets, and that would normally be a scoring deduction save for the fact that in this case they are all electrically compatible. So, no worries there.

your psu got 4+4 pin , but u dont even need the additional pin for the i7 unless you want to do some crazy overclocking

the extra 4+4 pin EPS connector is completely irrelevant and only matters when doing LN2 overclocking. and even then it barely matters. 

 

its only relevant on HEDT plattforms.

With the Bitfenix whisper m the VGA and CPU connectors on the PSU side are the same. This means you can plug the second 4+4 CPU cable in to one of the VGA sockets.

 

The second CPU connector for your motherboard is optional though, and you won't need it for the 9700k. You can just use the one cable.

Thank you for all of the replies. So i don't necessarily have to plug it in right? All right then. Thank you so much, i was searching here and there but no answer.  I think I'm gonna leave it in plugged.
