Hey guys, so far I've installed everything into the case and starting wiring stuff up, but thats where my complete lack of knowledge comes into play. I have so far only plugged in: The 24 pin power, cpu power 8 pin, usb 3, cpu fan, my rear fan and my pcie into my r9 290.
Im confused with my gpus power requirements, it has 8 pin and 6 pin inputs on it and im not sure if I need two seperate cables going into it from the pus to fill both? the Pcie cable also has to outputs on the end which im wondering is for 2 gpus or for one to be used 8 pin and the other 6.
Specs:
Z97 Pro4
Seasonic M12 II 750w power supply (not fully modular)
Gigabyte R9 290
G.Skill Ripjaw X 2x4gb 2400
Corsair carbide 400r
Evo 212 cooler
2tb HDD
optical drive
Can someone please also link me to a tutorial on sata cabling or what is necessary to run the optic drive and hdd? I think thats all that is left?
Another thing thats confusing me, is the fact that I have so many spare cables and stuff.
P.S the cables built into the Seasonic 750W are quite short and I'm unable to route them through the back of the case. I have to go directly up with say, the Cpu power from the power supply.
I need to build this pc within 3 days to know if any pieces are faulty to send back. Cheers
