    Hi,

    I am planning to buy MSI Z690 Tomahawk DDR4 motherboard with 12700K CPU. Currently I am using an old Corsair HX750 PSU, which has only 1 8-PIN CPU connector. However on the motherboard there are 2 8-pin slots for the CPU. Still the CPU and PCI-E cables/connectors seem to be "equal".

    So
    1. do I need to buy a new PSU and
    2. do I need to use both 8-pin connectors on the motherboard

    The GPU is GTX 1080.

    Thanks.
