So I've got an old motherboard and bought an EVGA 650 B3 to replace it, but one of the supplied power supply cables doesn't fit.
 
I've attached a photo with the circled area I'm talking about, and I don't know what sort of connector that is, so I have no idea how to search for help. 
 
Is there an additional cable I can buy to fit that motherboard slot, or do I need to find a different (compatible) power supply?

That's the 8-pin EPS (CPU) power socket..The EVGA 650 B3 connector for that would be it's 4+4 pin CPU connector..The two 4-pin connectors go together to fit in that one 8-pin socket.

Ugh  I somehow missed the 4+4 cable in the box.  It was plainly obvious once I went back.  Thanks everyone!
