Hello everyone,

I am currently installing components into my PC, and I have a couple questions.

GPU: My GPU has 2 4x4 ports on it. The power supply I bought gave me cables that are 4x4 but one end is 3x3 and 1x2. The GPU came with a Y 4x4 and 2 3x3. I'm just wondering what the right way is to hook it up.

Power Supply: My power supply has a Perif1 port on it. The other end are a bunch of 4x1 molex connecters. The case has only 1 4x1 molex piece that could connect to it. The case also came with a molex to pin convertor cable. Just wondering which one is the right one.

CPU: My motherboard has a 4x4 PCB port which is near the CPU, and based on the instructions, looks like the port to plug the CPU cable into. However, my power supply gave me cables that are 2 sets of 2x2 (basically a split in half 4x4). Is this cable still the right one?

Lastly, the case had a bunch of cables pre-set up. Two of them are 2 pin cables that were grouped with the 4x1 molex. I don't see any 2 pin slots on my board; so I'm wondering if I'm missing something.

Thanks,

It's hard to answer all your questions at once, please watch a video from youtube on "how to build a PC", you will be fully understand how to do it, all your parts should be fine, you just need to find out where to connect what...
