Hi guys,
I'm having a nightmare with a new build and I need your help sourcing the right cables.
The first is PSU to CPU, 8pin to 4+4, I currently have one of these cables, however the 8pin end doesn't fit my PSU, it does however fit my GPU :S

The second cable I need:
The case is a noctis 450, and I need a molex connector for the fan hub, again I have a cable for this, but the 6pin end doesn't fit in my PSU again..

PSU is AX850.

Any help is greatly appreciated this is killing me.

If they are not designed for that particular PSU, you will be taking a chance that they are wired the same as the originals. The device ends should be standard, but the end that goes into the PSU will have its wiring laid out to best match the internal configuration. And don't get the CPU 4+4 pin mixed up with the PCIe 6+2 pin. They have the exact opposite polarity.
Have you contacted Corsair to see if they can provide you with the missing cables?

This is the 6+2 pin end that feeds gfx cards ONLY:

The 8 pin cable for the CPU might be split in the middle to make a 4+4 pin cable. It looks similar to this:

The PSU should have come with one or more daisy chains of 4 pin Molex connectors. Use any of them to feed the case's fan controller.

That end isn't the problem, the 8pin cable for the CPU you linked is what I need, but I need both ends to be that connection, currently the 4+4 end fits the CPU slot, and in the PSU

It can't. The CPU end has one style connector, the PSU end has another style connector. Either way, it shuld have come with the PSU. Did you pick up the PSU used or something?

I did indeed, it was my dads spare, I bought a cable pack and included was: One (1) EPS/ATX 12V Power Processor Connector 8 pin (4+4 split, 8pin PSU mating connector) Individually Sleeved Modular Cable, Black, however the 8 pin "Power Processor Connector" does not fit anywhere in my PSU, and AFAIK, I bought the correct cables.
