I'm setting up a new PC with a Gigabyte B650 AORUS ELITE AX and an 850W Be-Quiet (Straight Power 11). I'm having trouble figuring out the correct power connector for the 7800X3D. Could you clarify whether to use Single ATX_12V1 or ATX_12V? The CPU-P4 seems to fit into ATX_12V1 without issues, while leaving the CPU-P8 open. The system boots into BIOS fine, but I want to avoid any problems later.

The two 4-pin sections you're holding are designed to connect, and they're inserted into ATX12V. ATX12V1 is intended solely for providing extra power during intense overclocking tasks.
