I have like a random periphial cable from my case that i cant find a thing on the mobo for so I guess i connect it directly to the power supply, but then I also have a cable from the case labled fan 2 with three prongs surrounded by an annoying block and theres no place for this either. all the fan outputs on my mobo are male as well so it doesnt connect. BLARGH

On the chassis fans there should be a cord that connects them to the mobo and to a cord on the psu. :o

Ok thank you so i found the cord to the psu but I am still not sure about the mobo.  But I think I might need an adapter or something because this doesn't go anywhere.
Meanwhile I have alot of cables from my psu going everywhere

you're going to post pictures right
you piece of drunk stuff, dont leave us hanging

[Ladios]

When I get it put together sure still waiting on parts.
So also apparently my case fans do not connect to my mobo as they have their own manual power settings. The cord I was trying to use was apparently for if you wanted to add additional fans.
Also added a dvd drive and a multi card reader to it from one of my old broken computers. Coming along nicely :D
Cant wait till the last parts get here :D

WOOO booting it up for the first time. Installing windows. Everything working great so far eeeeeeeeeee this is so exciting :D


SO DECISION TIME
WHAT SHOULD I NAME IT

Ladios, may I say that, for future reference, it would be better to set up a RAID array rather than have a single drive?
With RAID you can set it up so your computer reads from both at the same time, doubling your data rate and gives you double the space of the smallest drive, or you can use one to back up the other, which will only let you have the space of the smallest drive.
