That's very unusual. I assume you mean the long 24 pin connector? If the problem is the MB only has 20 pins you can detach 4 of the pins from the connector so it will still fit.

Dell power supplies and cases are usually non standard. In a really bad way... They didn't even came up with their own standard, just use randomly the cheapest junk that can be produced in china...
I can't give much advice because I'm more or less out of the loop. When I build a masheen it's most of the time a server with specs totally unrelated to a user facing hardware. I usually try to avoid video, sound cards as well as keyboards and mouses...

Do you mean the connector is 24 and the socket 20? Anyway, the plug and socket are keyed so you can 't put it in the wrong way. Usually 4 pins will detach from the plug by taking off some tape and sliding free. You can then plug into a 20 pin socket.
In any case it looks like you are replacing but you might find the new board is the same.

1. It is keyed so you can't get it wrong.
2. The power supply's connector plug will adapt to 20 pins if necessary by removing 4 pins
3. The extra 4 pins are on the end of the line of pins.

So older mother board, newer power supply.

In fact looking at it, the CPU you got requires you to specifically have two DDR3 1333 sticks installed (though sadly this shit gets complpicated, I have not kept up with it all, and the motherboard may have a memory controller in-built that means you can use the stuff listed above and not jsut the 1333 RAM suggested by the CPU manufacturer. This is probably the reality actually).
