Hey everyone! I'm trying to figure out if my 600 watt Cheiftec Proton power supply is good enough for my setup. I've got an RTX 5070 graphics card and a Ryzen 5 7600X processor. My motherboard has connectors for both 4 and 8 pins, but I noticed my power supply only has an 8-pin connector. Is that going to work?

You actually only need one 8-pin connector for the CPU, so you’re in luck! Just use the adapter that comes with your RTX 5070, and it should connect to two of the PCIe 8-pins from your power supply. Everything should be fine!
What if my motherboard only has a 4+4 pin? Is that still okay?
