Detailed explanation-1: -Yours require 65W and peaks up to 90W. I say it should be fine. In short your mobo need 8 pins connector from your PSU to your mobo and 4 pins will never work.
Detailed explanation-2: -A 4-pin connector has a given resistance and running a certain number of amps through the resistance creates a certain voltage drop and generates heat from that resistance. An 8-pin connector will have half the resistance of the 4-pin and thus half the voltage drop and half the heat spread over twice the connector.
Detailed explanation-3: -The 4 pin is only necessary if you are doing extreme overclocking, such as LN2. Otherwise the 8 pin will provide all the power you will need.
Detailed explanation-4: -You do not need to use all the connectors. If you have a low power CPU, you can use a 4-pin power plug on a mobo with an 8-pin socket. But if you have a i9–12900K or 5950X you should use as many power connectors as are on the motherboard.
