one with 10 pins, another with about 8 pins, and another with 2 or 4 pins. Should I connect all of them?

a youtube tutorial would be really helpful for you. visuals work best here, as the experience shows the motherboard has a 24-pin connector and typically a 4+4 pin for the cpu power. the gpu connects via a 6+2 connector.

According to the Asus manual, there are three possible PIN combinations: 24, 4+4, or 4+4 and 2+2. The instructions specify an OR or AND logic for selecting the correct code.

You ended up with an 80+ rated power supply. High ratings highlight performance over durability. Brands like Corsair, Lite On, beQuiet offer reliable 80+ Bronze units suitable for various needs, while Logisys previously produced an 80+ Gold arson box.

Great job. I'm sure you upgraded properly when you used that on a Gold unit, and you did.
