Are you required to connect a 4-pin ATX power cable when upgrading your CPU? Your motherboard includes an additional one, but your PSU lacks a dedicated port. You intended to boost your 10600kf to around 4.9 to 5GHz, using the Cooler Master MWE Gold 650 modular PSU. Refer to the list you shared for more details.

The additional 4-pin connector serves no purpose. It remains unnecessary for any ambient overclocking on the platform, even with the 10900k.

One 8-pin EPS module can deliver up to 384 watts. With a 10600k rating, you're nowhere near that level. Just make sure you have the right connector if you need it.

The 8-pin EPS already supports 384W. The 10600KF model likely won’t exceed that unless you’re employing liquid nitrogen or a similar method for overclocking.

You have enough strength without needing the additional four-pin setup.
