I am doing my first build and I can't figure out which connection to put from psu to the mobo. The MSI Z97 has a jpwr2 section with 8 pins and my CX430 psu has a 6+2 pci2 connector and a 8 pin cpu connector. I think the 8 pin cpu connector from the CX430 is supposed to go into the jpwr2 but the shapes (square and slightly rounded) don't seem to match up. I already connected the big power connector from the psu to the mobo. Thanks in advance for the help and apologies if this is silly newbie question. I read the manuals and searched online but couldn't find the answer.
