      I have a 500W PSU (JSP-500P12N) with the usual 4 pin CPU plug.
      However my mobo (MSI B460M PRO-VDH WIFI mATX) has 8 pin socket
      Does that mean I need another PSU.

      Cheers

          Yes that’ll do it. I believe the extra pins are only needed if there is a monster power guzzling CPU.
