motherboard power supply cable wire manual download

Manual? don't need one, just use the motherboard manual. Plug the PSU cables with the same shape instructed in the mobo manual.

There's nothing to configure, no manual needed.

 

There's a 24pin wide connector which powers the motherboard.

 

There's a 8 pin EPS connector which powers the processor. Sometimes, power supplies have this connector split in two segments of 4 pins, for backwards compatibility with older motherboards that used only a 4 pin connector to power the processor.

 

You can't mix or confuse this EPS connector with other connectors, because they have a different number of pins and they're keyed. For example, the ones for video cards are either 6 pin or 6+2 pin (8 pin) and you can't insert a wrong plug in motherboard headers because they're keyed (this means some pins in the power supply plug/jack have a specific shape which would block that plug/jack from entering the motherboard header)
