Hello,

I received all my parts from this build I made : https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/HdCWJ8

After struggling to put the Cryorig H7 (that doesnt work because its am3, and no mouting adapter coming, I did request 2 times, no answer back...) so I am using the stock cpu cooler since it fits my mb, with a bit of presure. (uptd: I received an email from Cryorig, should receive in the next 10 days, ill just have to take out the cooler, clean cpu & add cryorig right ?)

Now I am not able to do my cable connection for the power supply, PSI-E connected, Perephical connected, but the MOLEX/IDE/SATA i dont know what cable to use, I looked up on internet, they only show supperior models that doesnt have the same connection has me... (I did check the tutorial of Seasonic, but its not the same as mine, so cable are a bit different) I will try to add pictures so people can see and maybe help me if possible, but I guess I can't add picture from my computer here, since its only url...

Thank you very much

With that system and PSU, you'll need to use:
24pin ATX from the PSU to motherboard
4+4pin EPS to motherboard
1x6pin (6+2 physically, but you just leave "2" hanging) to the GPU
Either 1x SATA and connect the same ribbon to two drives, or 2x cables if you want to run them separately.

In addition, you need to connect the front panel connectors to the board (your manual will help with exactly 'where' for each) and SATA data cables from the drive(s) to the motherboard.

I checked all the papers I received, none explaining it., i just found that on internet : https://www.pcinside.info/inside/inside-power-supplies/power-supply-cables-connectors/

I guess tonight when im done at work i will try this way, because i only have 2 left spot to connect, but 4-5 cables...

I checked on seasonic and all that, no information that explain the connection, only words... i need images lol

Exactly bro, thank you very much!

That is exactly the one I have, I already have connected PCI-E & Pherephical, meaning I just need to add the 2 SATA cables?
