So, I have the Asus Prime X670E-PRO WiFi motherboard, and my Lian Li 750 PSU came with only one 8-pin EPS cable. I have a Ryzen 7 7700X processor, which I'm not going to overclock. Is it safe to plug in only one 8-pin EPS cable when my motherboard has two of them, but my power supply only has one?

Hello,

Yes, 1x EPS is sufficient for this platform as it’s capable of pulling up to 380w. 7000 series CPUs will never see this level of current outside of extreme OC conditions.
