Okay great, thanks for confirming - I will be using the correct cables for sure! Thanks for the info - I will definitely be running two separate PCIE cables.

This is probably a silly question, but I would rather not fry my GPU. As I mentioned, I have an HX850 and RTX 2080 Ti - this card requires 2x 8 pin cables to connect to it. It's been quite a few years since and if I recall correctly, the PSU I used previously had the CPU and PCI-E ports explicitly labeled (never worried about if there were the same thing/interchangable). 1.) Is there any difference between the 8 pin ports on the PSU? There are 5 of them with no specific label on any of them- just "6+2 PCI-E & 4+4 CPU" in the middle of them all. Assuming they are all the same, then only using the correct cable matters. Obviously the CPU cable will go up to the ATX 2x4 on the motherboard. That said.. 2.) I suppose I just run 2x 6+2 PCI-E cables to the 2080 Ti?

Perfect - thanks! I only have the Corsair HX850 not the HX850i, so this makes sense as to why I wasn't following the illustration. I appreciate you taking the time to respond and write all of this up across the forums - very good information!

Hey, hopefully a quick question (I think I know the answer, but want to be sure.) I just bought the 500D SE (has 3x LL120 fans), a single LL120 fan (for the back) and the H100i Platinum (comes with 2x ML120 fans for the radiator). I was going to mount the radiator to the top two LL120 fans on the front so that I could keep the front three intake fan types consistent (3x LL120). I was then going to mount the 2x ML120 fans to the top of the case as exhaust. However, having read multiple times that the ML and LL fans do not play nice on the Commander Pro and wanting to keep 3x LL120 as front intake I guess I will have to either mount the H100i radiator to the top with the ML120's or buy two more LL120's to go with my original plan. At least for now to get this system up and running, I presume the image below (minus the light strips) is what I will need to do (given the only perceivable difference between the H115i and H110i is the size of the fans)? http://i.imgur.com/ICBYkWk.png If, however, I do go the route of buying two more LL120 fans, would my original plan work of connecting all 6 fans to the Commander Pro and mounting the radiator to the top two fans on the front of the case? This would result in something similar to the image below (without light strips) except for using the H100i instead of the H150i (where I think the only difference is the radiator size is made for 3x 120 fans vs 2x 120 fans)? http://i.imgur.com/veQagHe.png Also, general question - is there any concern for having the fans connected to the Commander Pro instead of directly connected to the H100i pump? If you connect the fans and RGB to the Commander Pro, what do you do with the connections from the pump - just leave them empty and hang in the back? Edit: One more question as well. The USB from the Commander Pro connects to the internal USB pins in the motherboard and the AIO USB is going into the first USB slot on the Commander Pro. What is the USB line running from the PSU to the second USB slot on the Commander Pro in these images? Thanks for any help and you have great guides!
