Your Asus Prime B450-M-K should function with just four CPU power connectors if your Ryzen 5 2400G is compatible. Check the motherboard manual or manufacturer specs to confirm.

Because the 2400g is quite low in power, you should likely be able to use an adapter, although it might feel unstable. A solid PSU would be preferable.

It might work without an adapter, but I’m not sure.

4 pins with one connector delivers 155W. 8 pins featuring two connectors provides 235W. The 2400G rating supports up to 65W—great job! Thanks to @i_build_nanosuits

If the connections align, I think it should function, though this level of uncertainty applies to projects using reused components.

These connectors are a simplified version of the standard 4-pin design, maintaining the same layout and reliability.

If you're purchasing a new motherboard, but your budget PSU lacks an 8-pin connector, it might be wiser to opt for a used one.
