Do I need to connect both CPU power connectors on the MSI B850 Tomahawk?

Hey everyone! I'm currently installing a 9800X3D on my MSI B850 Tomahawk motherboard, which has two 8-pin CPU power connectors. Do I really need to connect both of them to the PSU, or is one enough?

You really only need to connect one 8-pin power connector for any of the CPUs that fit on AM5. So, you're all good with just one connection!
