z77 sabertooth and ax750. not sure what cable to plugin to mb

[kleptic]

what cord do I use for the 8 pin connector or does it matter? i have one with 2 4's that make 8 together with 8 on the end that goes into the psu and one with 2 4's that make 8 together with 12 on the end that goes into the psu but the 4 on one side of the psu side dont have metal contacts in them. so are these the same cable with just a different plug option for the psu side?

 

the cables are labeled cg01(the 8 to 8) and ch01(the 8 to 12)

 

since the pin shapes dont look like they match up perfectly I wanted to make sure before I plugged it in. some of the squares on the motherboard have the rounded side on the plugin from the psu, but none of the rounded motherboard slots have a square pin so I think it should plugin fine.

saw this thread and the same thing was mentioned but I couldnt be sure what cable to use so hopefully somebody can verify for me that this is ok to plugin.

 

thanks

The PSU comes with two 4+4-Pin ATX/EPS 12V connectors. Either one will work just fine.

If you are still unsure post a pic of the cable in question. But usually they are labled ATX or PCIe which is for graphics cards. You dont want to mix those up either.

This is the connector that goes to your MB and the other is also 8pin. Ignore the shapes of the connector, it will go in as long that you have the tabs positioned correctly.
