Is there a site that will show what plugs I need to plug into the motherboard I'm getting?

I have been looking at all of the sites, and none of them actually tell me which plugs I need to plug into my motherboard. If possible, can someone provide a link, and tell me which plugs are necessary that I need to plug into my motherboard. I'm going to be using a Asus Maximus Hero VII.

This info would be on the multi page paper thing that is included in the box your motherboard comes in.

AKA the 'user manual'.

The motherboard manual outlines everything you will need to know for installation.

I downloaded and read the whole manuel, however it doesn't really include too much. It honestly just says put in the 24 pin and the 8 or 6 pin connector...

The manual doesn't really tell me like if I need a usb 3.0 connector or all of that...

I just looked over it again more carefully, and I realized what I had missed. Does this mean that all I need is a 24 pin, 8 pin, usb 3.0 connector?

Well pretty much all components plug into the mobo. From the psu is 24 pin which is mobo power, 8 pin is cpu power. Then there should be wires from the case that are for the front panel. Usually usb, audio, and power. Sata from hdds and optical drives. You could have fans that plug into it. The cpu fan definitely will. Maybe I should just link to the how to build a pc. It covers all the steps you may encounter. http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/274745-31-step-step-guide-building

Wait until you get all the parts
Read the manuals
Follow the manuals

If you do it right, it won't explode.

It is printed on the ends of the wires, and printed in the user manual.
