4 pin power enough for i5 4690k?

Go to solution Solved by ilikemacandpc,

it will be plenty of power, especially since you won't OC

Im building an itx pc. Now i dont plan overclocking at alk but the k is currently just under 10 bucks more here.

Now i can buy an h97 mobo or the same one vut with 8 pin power. The z97 one is quite a bit more expensive though.

I hoped you guys can tell me if 1 4pin cpu power for a non OC 4690k is enough. Don't wanna gamble it and rather not pay more than needed either.
