Wiring part of building a pc?

[DGaming]

Can someone pls tell me which wires went where when u build a pc? i know 1 goes from psu to gpu ,2 go from power supply to motherboard, 1 from psu to the HDD/SSD! What else?

 

Thank you

It depends on what you have, any pics?

I would wire your CPU 8/6 pins because it the hardest to wire, the next would prob be 24pins and than the all the drives/fans and GPU would by my last.

If you mean my build? 

 

Case: BitFenix Neos 

Mobo: MSI Z97 PCMATE ATX

CPU: i5 4460

GPU: EVGA GTX 970

RAM: 8GB 2x4 corsair vengeance pro 1866MHz

HDD: 1TB WD BLUE

SSD: 120GB KINGSTON

PSU: 750W EVGA Supernova G2

 

I dont see how that matters tho

Theres quite a bit of wires but here's the run down:

 

PSU to GPU

PSU to Motherboard (ATX connector which powers the mobo)

SATA to HDD/SSD 

Front case connectors such as the power button, reset button, HDD activity light and USB connectors need to be attached to the motherboard.

All Fans are attached to the motherboard, this includes the fan on top of the CPU heatsink

The most generic connections are 24 pin (giant one) from PSU to mobo, ATX (4x4 pin, for cpu) from PSU to mobo, 6 pin (for GPU) from PSU to GPU, SATA Power from PSU to storage, SATA from mobo to storage, molex (fans, other addon/12v stuff) from PSU to various devices, and USB headers.  I may have missed one or two, however.  Consult your mobo manual for the front panel pins and other additional stuff, plus to deduce where the connectors even are.  Just watch a tutorial on how to build a PC on YouTube, they should cover all the connectors.

I have watched A LOT of videos.. but ive never really payed attention to the wiring! Also im building the pc with a friend who has built a lot of pcs before so ill be fine, but I just wanted to know all the different wiring... looks like a lot! I tought it was a little less!

Usually if it fits, it sits. Usually. Never had a problem using that technique though.

My guide in my sig might be able to help you out.

But for wiring, remember that almost every component needs a data connection to the motherboard, and a power connection from the PSU
