So I am hooking up my ASUS M5A87 mobo to a Crosair GS700 PSU...the asus manual says i need to plug in the 4 pin ATX12V from the PSU, but my PSU only has a EPS12V 8 pin CPU Cable, and nothing else from my PSU matches the description of what needs to be plugged into the mobo.

everyone i talked to at the store i purchased told me the PSU would be fine with the mobo...none of the manuals provide good trouble shooting. anyone have any suggestions?
 
Does the 8 pin look like it splits into 2 4 pin connectors?

yes but it has two squares on the one side...(diagonal from each other) with the other two being the same as the other 4 beside them. do i just plug it in anyways? it seems to fit but the shape of the plug was throwing me off
 
i just now realised the 8 pin splits in half....the tape goes so far up it made it seem like it was one piece....thanks for the hint man!
