No I went for the standard PCIe m.2.... should I have gone for the PCIe 4?

Will definitely send pics!! Gonna look sweet.. if I don’t mess it up. First time. Fingers crossed.
 
Hi guys quick question as I’m building this right now... the mobo cpu_pwr placement has an 8 (called cpu_pwr1) and a separate 4 pin header (called cpu_pwr2) do I need to use this second power header or ignore it? Build Hardware is as above.

thanks!
 
Thanks gents! Another question... I have an additional 120mm nzxt rgb fan but there doesn’t seem to be an additional rgb control slot on the nzxt control hub in the case? Is there something I’m missing?
 
Think I’ve sussed it... daisy chain them together through the in and out ports on the fans?? Fan to fan cable is pretty short though.. may have to rearrange the front fans where I’m getting the daisy chain from
 
Doesn’t reach, its 2cm too short! Tried rotating the front fans to give me extra but still nothing. I need an extension do you know what they’re called and where I can buy one? They say in and out on each end and give rgb to the fans

Thanks..

I’ll send a picture of it and the manual.

more importantly... I set it up. Won’t boot :( Fromt panel power light illuminates but when I hit it nothing happens! Help! :)
 
In the manual for the mobo it gives you a QR code on each page that takes you to these YouTube videos showing you how to each thing.. front panel headers for example. So it’s from my exact mobo manual but it may not be the exact one.

Is there anything else it could be or is this the first port of call?
 
No I haven’t it sounds scary plus I don’t really know how to do it and I’ve been at this all day so going to go into it tomorrow!! How do you do it? Just touch a screwdriver in the plus and minus power pins?
 
Sussed it!!! Yessss feels so good! Haha

The front panel connector has a splitter on the cable and I had that in wrong!

Pics coming soon but I still need to get this rgb in the rear fan.. then I’ll send them :)

thansk for the help just then..
 
Potentially last question. I’m getting the message ‘reboot select proper boot device‘ message.

I’m aware that I need to install a setup exe on a flash drive and pop that in but all the other computers in the house are macs. What’s the best way to set this new bad boy up in this case?
