First pc

So I am planning to get my first pc soon. I am limited to my dad's allowance right now, but in a year I will have a job and earn my own money, then I will be do an upgrade properly. For now, I went ultra budget except for expensive parts. I have combined a I9-14900k (yes I will need those cores) with a ddr4 mobo so I'm still in budget. Reason why I went like this because I don't wanna throw away like a i5-12400f or ryzwn 5 5600x away when I get the upgrades.


The problem is, this motherboard has only one 6+2 connector, and as you know, this cpu requires a willy Wonka ton of power to operate (around 200-300w under load). Will my pc work? If so, will it be super duper unstable? Or will it work just fine?

Ps: I'm not running heavy tasks since I don't have a gpu yet (planning to get a steel legend 7900xtx with also a steel legend z790 in upgrades later). It will be just general browsing and some office programs.
