Basically I recommended to a friend getting a ryzen 5 1600 with this very cheap motherboard PRIME B350M-A

I then realised hes coming from a q6600 setup and the PSU he has only as a 4 pin CPU instead of an 8pin

The motherboard manual says that they recommend a 8pin but under that it says dont forget to connect the 4pin/8pin connector

Is there any harm in trying connecting a 4pin in an 8pin socket? anyone done it? if so what CPU were you running?

thanks.
