Check if a 2x4 pin connector works for your setup. For a B650 Plus with an ASUS AM5, you can connect four pins directly and leave the remaining four unconnected unless specified otherwise. Confirm compatibility with your motherboard.

Connect the 8-pin directly. The EPS 8-pin design supports up to 384W for the CPU. The additional 4-pin is mainly useful for heavy overclocking scenarios.

Hey guys... I'm going to stick with just an 8-pin connector since I don't plan on overloading anything.

You can change the cable if you prefer, though altering it may cancel the warranty on your PSU—proceed at your own hazard.
