Hello! I recently started putting together a build and everything is just about fine except... the CPU connector won't fit? Only one side does. Is this normal? Could I get away with that or do I need a new power supply or motherboard?
Parts involved:
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600x (95w)
Motherboard: https://www.newegg.com/gigabyte-b450m-ds3h/p/N82E16813145083?Item=N82E16813145083
Power supply: https://www.newegg.com/evga-100-w1-500-kr-500w/p/N82E16817438016?Item=N82E16817438016

I'm pretty sure the eps connector only plus one way 

That's normal
