Good morning everyone, I am new to building my pc and I am currently in the middle of my pc, Its all tore apart on my dinner table right now because I am at a stand still, I have the EVGA SuperNova 1300 G2 80+ Gold power supply unit, which is powering two EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB SC+ GAMING ACX 2.0+, I have the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VIII HERO LGA1151 motherboard with an I7 6700k Processor. I also have a 250gb Samsung SSD for my O.S drive and a 1Tb SSD for game storage and everything else. I Understand the Motherboard Plug Ins and I Know where the 24 pin and 8 pin go into the power supply, I am almost positive the two 980ti's go into the first two vga slots on the power supply. Im almost sure that the two ssd's go into the first two sata ports also, what i am so confused about is this power supply has ports labeled RERP1 and RERP2 along with CPU1 and CPU2, I do not understand what these are used for. I have my build going inside a NZXT H440 Razer Edition which comes with a fan hub, Where do i plug the fan hub into on the power supply? Please help and thank you
 
Solution
I meant on the cable itself, sorry if I wasn't clear about that. But, if you look at one of the cables with molex connectors, you'll see what I mean.

Fan hub is usually connected to the Molex ((flat 4x1 connector, usually white)). For the RERP labeled connectors, no one really seems to know why they are as such. I couldn't find an answer anywhere, unless I completely missed something which is possible.

This power supply if you look it up has zero 4x1 connectors in it, everything on the psu is labeled in what i previously stated, thats why im so confused.
 
I'm guessing it's EVGA's attempt to be confusing - RERP are for the peripheral cables (ie. Molex). Why RERP? I have no clue, perhaps sloppy handwriting that was improperly interpreted?
There are 2 CPU headers for ultra high end systems (and sub zero cooling) that require the use of multiple EPS/ATX12V connections - it really doesn't matter which you connect to

There is nothing on the power supply, its completely empty other than the ports on the rear

'

I understood what you meant haha, The fan hub molex is 4x1 do i need to buy another cable to be able to make it adapt to the power supply? like do i need to get a 6 pin or 3x2 whatever you may call it?
 
You don't have a molex cable for that PSU currently? Was it purchased used or did it come with a custom built system? There should be two cables with molex connectors that came with the PSU, one that has 2 molex connectors and a floppy connector, the other has 3 molex connectors.

I bought it brand new from Newegg along with my two 980ti's the fan hub came stock in the back of the pc case the H440 and it only has the 4x1 Molex connector in it, The power supply box did not have any 4x1 to 6 pin connectors in it
 
I think I would direct that to either NewEgg or EVGA since those are supposed to be included. If just wanting to purchase a cable to hook up your fan hub without dealing with EVGA or NewEgg, you might check out some of the custom cable makers such as IceModz or MODDIY then you can choose color, length, and quantity of connections (just one if desired)

I'd double check your spare cables though just to be sure they aren't hiding in there somewhere
