Hello, your setup includes the Asus Thor 850W Platinum and Asus ROG Strix X570-E with 2x4 PSU cables. The 24-pin cable with 2x4 connectors is likely for power distribution; it’s not strictly necessary unless you need extra connections.

That's CPU power, IIRC. Why don't you want to connect all the power connections?

Ensure the 24-pin connector is connected. The CPU runs independently, and you need a minimum of a 4-pin CPU connector, though an 8-pin or 4+4 setup is preferable. A budget-friendly 4-6 core Ryzen processor works with just a 4-pin connector, but since you already have the 8-pin cable at the end (or 4+4), connect both parts together.
