Need assistance linking the cable from the power supply to the motherboard and other components!
Think of the wires as connections you need to make between parts. The name should point clearly to what you’re plugging in, like “connect this cable to the USB port.” It’s not just about naming; it’s about matching the right plug to the right hole.
For your setup, follow these steps:
1. Find the label on your motherboard that says where each port goes (usually marked with a small arrow or number).
2. Match the cable you have to the correct port—look for labels like “USB 3.0.2” or “M.2 slot.”
3. Once plugged in, check the manual for any special instructions or warnings.
If you’re unsure about a specific port, it’s okay to ask for help. Don’t worry if the label is missing; sometimes you just need to confirm with a friend or the manual. You’re doing great by asking carefully!
They match up, it's listed in the guides. Looks like USB 3, USB 3.1, and HD Audio connectors are included with your PC case: Motherboard manual pages 39 and 40. https://download.asrock.com/Manual/B650M Pro RS WiFi.pdf The key point is, you don't connect anything to the UART1 header—it's likely a troubleshooting section.
It’s designed to link multiple RGB fans or lights using one cable. UART functions as a serial connector. No additional connections are required for fans or RGB devices. RGB, USB, fan headers, and PSU links are indicated on the motherboard and typically secured in specific positions to prevent incorrect placement.
On the left side of the cables in the photo, the connectors display labels such as "CPU" and "PCIe." The right side is clearly labeled. The CPU label refers to the power header on the motherboard, while PCIe indicates the GPU connection. In this image, you can observe which header corresponds to each cable: ATX24P is obvious because it’s the widest and has the most pins. Marking CPU and PCI-E lets you use either a 4+4 pin power cable or a PCIe power cable in any of the five headers designated for those connections. SATA and MOLEX cables follow the same pattern, just for their respective power types. PSU connectors are designed with keying; examining the connector tip shows a mix of two shapes, preventing incorrect connections unless someone forces it, which would damage the keying.
UARTs are typically used to diagnose firmware issues with specific tools. Refer also to JTAG https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_...ransmitter
I have all the figures marked with a red check mark. The numbers 2 and 3 cable aren't clear—do you mean where they are placed?
2 connects to the fan header on your motherboard. #3 is an ARGB connector, so plug it into the ARGB header on your board. The markings say "CPU 4+4pin," which is for the CPU power connector, typically found in the top left area. Use an 8-pin PCIe cable for your GPU instead.
i have problem for #2 cable there no fan header that accept the [00-0], there is [0000] , but according to the manual i cant do that no? #3 has meet it place is it this one? but where in the psu i put the other end of cable? as for 8 pin pcie cable, you mean this one? the part with 6+2, is fitting just fine with the gpu, the problem is the other end is look like this, its have uh... no steel thing inside? i get two of them and they both doesnt have have so i do belive it intentional not some missing pieces i can connect it just fine into the psu hole with lable cpu&pci-e , and the square and not so square shape is is fit okay but is it the right to connect them?
Short version of answer : It is fine Yeah, that's a CPU power header. At one of the 5 headers marked for CPU & PCIE Yeah. You can just leave the unused extra 6+2 connector hanging.
