Hey guys I'm new to PC building. So I have a ASrock X570PG PG Velocity. My power supply is a corsair RM850 fully module. My cpu is a Ryzen 9 5900x. My mother board has a 8 pin cpu power connector and a 4 pin as will. From what I've read if I understand it correctly. Is I use the 8 pin and the 4 pin both. I would like to plug it all in if that is they way it is supposed to go? Where does the 4 pin plug in to the power supply? Also my corsair power supply didn't come with a manual.

Are the power supply cables original?

Get a pic of the power supply jacks and the cables with connector ends, close up.

You need the EPS 12V and P4 connector hooked up as per your mothrrboard manual

Read this and pay attention to the end that goes into the psu (left end of cable image) and then the motherboard (right end of cable image)

It is brand new from newegg and I have a warning book but no manual, crazy. Attached is a picture of the back of the power supply. The cables that are provided are.... (1) ATX 24 pin, (2) EPS/ATX 12v 8 pin 4+4, PCIe 8pin 6+2, (1) peripheral 4 pin, (3) Satan (4 sata)

Use 2 EPS 12V cables and connect 1 to the 8 pin (both connectors) and the other to the P4 4 pin (1 connector). On the psu use the jacks below the 24 pin atx.

Hey I just watch the videos thanks so much!!! I think I have a good understanding but I would like to double check. Please see my attached photo for my layout for my power I wasn't sure about the graphics card so please correct me if that's incorrect. I haven't even got that far yet.

Ok sorry for not being clear, use the 2 far right jacks under the 24 pin ATX jack for the EPS 12V and P4 connectivity
