Thanks Nev I will do that. My graphics card is coming from Hong Kong so I do have a bit of time before i install it.

Thanks for the comment Nev. I have a 800W PSU so I am not worried about the requirement. Just wanted to know if I could use the Molex connectors. Is your answer Yes to both questions? Thanks

Hello everyone. I have a couple of questions about the connection adapter for my graphics card. I will be upgrading my graphiocs card to a NVIDIA GTX 280. It requires 2 power sources. 1x 6 pin PCI- E and 1 x 8 pin PCI-E cable. My Power supply has 1 x 6 pin PCI-E cable and I need to attach a 8 pin PCI-E converter to the molex connectors. The molex connectors need to be connected to 2 independent cables as shown in the picture below. http://i640.photobucket.com/albums/uu125/dark_princess_666/CONNECTION.jpg My problem is that I have 4 molex connectors on the PUS (2 on each cable). My questions are: 1) can i use these molex connector which i circled in the photo as I am worried that it might interfere with the power voltage to the graphics card. 2) can I use molex splitters as i need more power connections. Thank You in advance .

Jelly Bean: I have the manual but the labels are not clear to me. It says that pin 1 red wire of the spdif out cable must align with pin 1 of spdif_io of the header. which pin (3 or 4) is the spdif_io? Dalo Harkin: I will be connecting the pc to the hdmi screen and possibly my av receiver hence why i want to install it now. Thanks Please Help! :confused:

Spelt it wrong sorry Dalo Harkin:o

Thanks for the info Dalo Harkim

Hello everyone. I have a very unusal problem. My question relates to the S/PDIF cable that came with the graphics card Geforce 9400GT 1GB (GV-N94TOC-1GI). It says to connect the red wire to the S/PDIF out pin and the black to the Ground pin. I have the Gigabyte GAM61PME-S2P motherboard. The diagram shows 5 pins. 1=power, 2=no pin, 3=SPDIF, 4=SPDIFI, 5=GND, 6=GND. Question: Which pins on the motherboard do I connect the red and black wires? Jelly Bean if you read this post any ideas?? :confused:

Duly noted. Will do. My CPU will be covered by the fan anyway. Regards dark princess

I found this link which shows a picture of the front temperature sensor. Google Image Result for http://img.tomshardware.com/us/2005/06/07/10_mammoth_cpu_coolers/asus_temperature_sensor.jpg Thanks for your help Jelly Bean :):cool:

Thank you for your comment Jelly Bean. My case does have a temp gauge at the from. There is a manual for the case but it does not mention anything about the wires. Can you confirm the photo that i placed on the link as temp sensor. Thanks

UPDATE Images can be found here. http://i640.photobucket.com/albums/uu125/dark_princess_666/photo.jpg http://i640.photobucket.com/albums/uu125/dark_princess_666/photo2.jpg I read in another forum that this might be a temperature sensor for a front panel fan control/display unit and that you do not connect it to anything. link: a CPU wire, colored red - Topic Powered by Infopop

Hi everyone. Any help is much appreciated. I have bought a Casecom Kj3391 PC Case and attempting my first built. I have seen so many videos and instructions and it all seemesd well until I saw the wires on the PC Case. I more or less know where all the wires go accept for one. It is 2 red wires connected together and labelled "CPU". Anyone have any ideas where it goes? It does not have the black connector, more like 2 pins in a plactic see through tube.
