Hello, I'm verifying the compatibility of the board with the CPU. The NZXT N7 B650e uses an 8 + 4 pin power connector, whereas other boards have an 8 + 8 pin connector. Please confirm if this matches your setup.
It functions smoothly without issues! The 1x8 pin CPU power connector supports up to 226 watts of continuous power. The 7800X3D requires 80-85 watts, and you can operate it without the 4-pin connection. I use my 7700X with just the 1x8 pin CPU power connector. The additional 4 or 8 pins on most boards are mainly for overclocking purposes—just a nice extra feature. In general, these extra connectors aren't necessary.
