Hello All, I've been lurking for sometime, however I've recently started my first build in about 15+ years and signed up as I have a number of questions.
Build thus far:
Crosshair V Formula-Z
AMD FX-8350
KingWin LZP-1000
CoolerMaster Storm Trooper
G.Skill Ares 1866 16Gb
Noctua NH-D14
I will be adding a 128Gb Vertex 4 SSD for OS, a 2tb WD HDD for Data, a BR/DVD/CD writer, a Sapphire Radeon 7970 GPU, and a couple more 120mm Sickleflow case fans.
My first question is about connecting the PSU to the Mobo. The CVFZ has 4 ports for power: 24pin, 8pin 4pin, and 4pin EZ Plug molex. The PSU has cables marked 24pin CPU1, 8pin CPU2 and another split 8pin half marked CP and the other half U1 (CP/U1)
Which cables do I connect?
PS the manuals for the case/mobo/psu are very vague and I have read and re-read them about 50 times.
