Will 1 8 Pin EPS connector will be enough for MSI MPG B650 EDGE WIFI

Hi I want to buy the MSI MPG B650 EDGE WIFI but I don’t know if I’ll need to get a new power supply as well because mine only got 1 8 pin EPS connector and I saw the motherboard needs 2 I don’t know if it’s mandatory to use both. The cpu I’ll be using is Ryzen 7 7800X3D and I’ll overclock my ram to 6000 MHz. Thanks in advance.

That’s plenty of power for a 7800X3D.

The EPS connector is good for 300 watts, the 7800x3d will consume maybe at most half of that. So it's enough.
