stupid question

 

Which connector for cpu actually goes to the motherboard and which goes into the psu 

the 2 2x2 connectors say cpu on it and the 8x2 says psu on it, place psu labeled into psu?

 

 

Yes stupid question but i dont want the f*ck anything up

I don't actually give useful information, hopefully I just  say something funny.

i hate myself

If it's your first build then it's a perfectly legit question. It's better to make sure you're not gonna break it than burn the board cause you did it wrong.
