To power up your motherboard you need to attach the power cables from
the power supply unit. Your case has many header cables which also
needs to be connected to the motherboard so the switches, led, usb
sockets on front panel of the case functions properly.
Label 1 below shows the location of the ATX 2.0 power connector. It
has 24 pins. It powers the motherboard and all the components. It has a
fool proof design and only fits one way. Place the connector on top of
the power socket making sure you are holding it the right way. Push the
connector into the socket until it locks into position.
Label 2 shows the location of ATX 12 Volts connector. It has 4 pins.
It powers the processor. The connector only fits one way. Push the
connector into the socket until it locks into place.
Label 3 shows the location for the header connectors. Your case has
header cables for front USB, firewire, power switch, power LED, reset
switch, speaker, etc. Connect each header cable to the labeled header as
shown below. While attaching these little cables make sure the positive
and negative pins are correct. Read your motherboard manual for more
details.
