I'm upgrading my computer with a water loop with the corsair 900D case and I'm not sure on all the cables required. I have a cooler master gold 800W PSU, MCP655-PWM-DRIVE pump and a FrozenQ liquid fusion reservoir with a cathode converter. What i'm not sure about is how to connect all the molex cables because I have pretty much no experience with them.

I wouldnt be asking this if it was that simple. My PSU doesnt have molex ports.

Not molex ports but cables surely. If you have a modular PSU just look for them on your box.

And no offense, but how do you plan on assembling a loop if you can't assemble the PSU?

Trust me I know this does sound stupid, I just have no experience with molex cables but I know everything else required to make a loop. I'm just trying to find out what adapters I'l need to get if I need any. From what I can see my PSU only came with 1 female molex.

<p>Sorry to waste your time guys I'm just gonna have this post deleted or locked. Can A mod or dev please lock it or delete it? thanks.</p>

 

That wasn't my intention. If you read everything thoroughly and ask question you can actually be able to install a custom loop. Like I also just installed mine 2 weeks ago and I had to ask several questions, even if they are just for assurance.

It might help us if you could give us the exact model of your PSU or something. For adapters: there should be sata-power->molex adapters and there are 3-pin-fan-header->12V molex adapters that work.

umm, yeah.. check your documentation, you should have plenty of Molex support:

 

COOLER MASTER Silent Pro Gold Series RS800-80GAD3-US 800W

1 x Main connector (20+4Pin)

1 x 4+4-Pin ATX/EPS 12V

4 x Peripheral (Molex)

9 x SATA

1 x Floppy

6 x PCI-E

I checked the cable package that came with it and found exactly what I needed so my issue is sorted.
