I am having trouble getting a wire to connect from the EATX12v slot on the motherboard into the 4+4 CPU slot on the power supply. Since both of these slots are female, I believe I'd require a male-male wire to connect these 2 slots. However, I have no such cable for this and cannot seem to find one online anywhere to order.

Could anyone please explain to me if my information regarding the requirement of the male-male cable is correct. If so, could anyone direct me to where I can overcome this?


I do have a male-male cable which would connect the EATX12v slot into one of the 6 pin Peripheral & Sata slots on the power supply. However, is this where the EATX12v slot is meant to be connected to?
 
Solution
The cable you linked is an extension cable. The CX 750M should not have a modular 4+4 EPS cable. It should be a non-modular cable just like the 24 ATX pin connector. Check your power supply.
