How can I connect with power supply between 4-pin and 8-pin motherboard power sockets?

Under normal condition, we suggest you that remove the flapper and connect 8-pin power socket to the power supply. With overclocking or heavy load, you can connect 8-pin power socket first and then re-connect 4-pin power socket. Please note that do not connect 4-pin power socket directly without using 8-pin power socket.
