I bought the motherboard and need to know if the 4-pin connector is necessary for it to work with my R7 1700 or R7 2700X. I’m wondering if leaving that pin empty would be fine since the 8-pin connector seems sufficient.

Only one 8-pin connector needed unless you're planning DICE or LN2 overclocking.

I own the same motherboard. The 8-pin works just fine; the extra 4-pin is only useful if you plan heavy overclocking or need more power delivery, as seen with models like the R9 3900x and 3950X.
