Having an absolute nightmare here! Lol

Will try and upload pics now.

Do I need all the PSU connectors in because there's a lot of them!

JoeF1 · 5 Nov 2013 at 16:20

No mate, just ones that you need to power the HDDs, GFX cards etc. Rest put in the box for safe keeping

When you view an uploaded picture there should be a bunch of links to the right of it. Copy and paste the BBCode one into your post.

Question.!

My SSD, HDD and Optical drive all have Sata connectors, so I have connected them but I don't know where they go on the motherboard, there is a red station where all the ports go but does it matter where I plug them in, there are 8 sata ports on the red station on the mobo.

daveip · 5 Nov 2013 at 17:16

No doesn't really matter where they go/what order they go in to the board.

Mathematics · 5 Nov 2013 at 17:18

Cheers mate! I put the Ssd in port 1 and optical in port 2 then, leaving the HDDs out at the moment, can rearrange later..

Mathematics · 5 Nov 2013 at 17:21

Where do I plug the fans in the H100i? I have the other 4 in the sentry fan controller, and another 2 already connected to the case controller.

Mathematics · 5 Nov 2013 at 17:24

In the side of the H100i socket head, there is a port of some kind, not for fans, anyone know what it's for..?

Fulax · 5 Nov 2013 at 17:24

The h100i comes with a cable with two 3 or 4-pin (can't remember which) connectors - put the other end in the pump.

You can also attach them to a fan header on your motherboard.

The mini-USB socket on the side of the pump is for the Corsair Link cable. You can use it to change the colour of the LED on the pump, but it doesn't need to be in for the pump to work.
