Hi

Basically building a PC but have some queries about the internal wiring. It's the Asus K110m-k.

The chassis has 2 fans. MOBO only has 1 four prong header. Can I connect the other fan to the PSU and run it with attaching it to the motherboard?

The case (Kolink Aviator) has the normal system panel connections but there is also two other connections for power led positive and negative. Cant see anywhere they could go plus I have already got these plugged in on the system panel connections. Should these just be left?

The case has a grounding wire. I was under the impression the system is ground through the PSU. Should this also be left?

I build a PC years ago with my dad so thought I'd be OK but this has confused me.

Set up

I5 6400
Asus H110M-K MOBO
8gb PNY Anarchy RAM
EVGA 1050ti Super clocked GPU
WD Blue 1tb HD
Corsair CX430 PSU

Thanks

if you have two fans and need them to be connected to the motherboard you can buy a fan hub or this

the fan hub does the same but rquire or a sata power connector or a molex power connector

i connected one 20mm and one 120mm fans to the motherboard using one of these, it works well, system handles both at the same time, so that is something to consider

about the leds on the case, there is many cases that had two connectors for the led and for the power button, those are there if by any chance you have a weird mothermboard that requires them, better to have them and not use them than...

Yep you can connect your FAN to ur PSU, for the Negative and Possitive led, you need to plug it as well, its usually located below your motherboard just look on the label and your ready to go.

yes, leave it unplugged if you already connected the normal 2 sepparated or 2 joined connector for the power led and for power button

about the case grounded with a cable, never seen one of those

is this your case?

it looks like a fingerprint magnet, a very nice fingerprint magnet!

can't find information about the cables inside this case to understand better what you see there
