But there are some cables I don’t know how to connect to the motherboard and also there is an additional 6 pin atx connector for my motherboard but my psu doesn’t have an extra one so do I have to connect that or not ima upload some pictures of what cables I’m confused on but if you can help me match it up to this outline of all the connectors on the motherboard
Here are the links to the diagram

Here are the pictures of the connectors I don’t know what to do with

This is one of two wires coming out of back fan it has 3 wires going into it but has 5 pin slots but wires only go to middle 3.. the other wire is already connected to motherboard fan connector but idk where this one goes

Ok and now these wires are case wires probably for fans but idk where they connect to on the board so if you can help me match these up to the diagram pictures that would be amazing!!!

Also if you can just lmk about that 6-pin atx connector and if I need it cause I don’t have a cable for it and ima have to get one if I need it but the board is connected with cpu power and the main 24pin connector so not sure if I need it or not.. thanks again for everything guys really really appreciate any help what do ever
 
Solution
you should start with the mobo manual. start at page 1 and literally go page by page and connect as you go. if you do not have that item on the page then go to the next on. when you get to the end, you are done and all should be right. it will show where all the cables and wires go since it tells about every connection on the board.

if you don't know what the wire from the case is, then look at the case manual as that should tell you what is what. all this info together will ensure you're system is right and ready to go :)

there is no secret formula for doing this, it is simply the principle of RTFM!!

Ok so I got everything working besides the case fan LED lights so I think that’s what the wires were for I just can’t find where they go

those should plug into an rgb header. the mobo has plenty of them

  • 1x 4-pin RGB LED connector

  • 2x 3-pin RAINBOW LED connectors

  • 1x 3-pin CORSAIR LED connector
check the manual for where the 4 pin connector is on the mobo. that's what you want to use so you can control them through whatever software is used.
