The bottom right picture is a plug that came with my PSU.

Thanks for reading.

The larger plug is a molex connector. It would typically be used for case fans that aren't controlled by the motherboard. If this is your first time building, use the motherboard manual as reference to first install all of the data connections. Then install the power connections. They will typically be;

1. 20/24 pin motherboard power
2. 4/8 pin CPU power
3. SATA power to HDD and optical drives
4. Case fans (if any)

And remember that just because there is a connector doesn't necessarily mean that it has to be plugged in somewhere.

Thanks for responding. I have everything wired except those 2 cables, which control the case's fans. I just dont know where to plug them in since the connector for the cable thats not the molex wont fit anywhere on the motherboard or psu (In my opinion)

You may need to get one of these: http://compare.ebay.com/like/300702617787?var=lv&ltyp=AllFixedPriceItemTypes&var=sbar

Some fans come with the adapters attached.

I did more research and saw that the molex needs to be connected to psu. My psu came with female molex that connects to psu, and a male molex that is wired to a 4 pin connecter (bottom right pic). If I connect the male to female, where would the 4 pin connect to?

Ah. I thought the picture was of your PSU lead. Do not plug in the smaller 4 pin connector. The molex is all you need to power a fan.

So I would need to purchase the cable you posted then connect that to the molex from case to molex to psu?
