struggling with corsair 780t build

Hey

This is my first attempt at a gaming rig build, i've bought the following:

corsair 780t along with a
Z97X-Gaming 5 mobo
GTX 980
Corsair H110

I've installed all the components but i'm at a loss with what to do with all of the fan power leads? Can anyone with any experience with these cases help me out?

The case features a fan controller.

This uses a SATA power connector to feed four fans.

So you should find this - http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Corsair/Graphite_780T/images/innercablesata.jpg - that needs power from the PSU.

These four - http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Corsair/Graphite_780T/images/innercablefan.jpg - you plug the case fans into.

This one - http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Corsair/Graphite_780T/images/innercablemolex.jpg - you power from the PSU and this does the cases lighting.

As for the H100,

This cable - http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Corsair/H110/images/H110_contents2.jpg - stick it into CPU fan header.

The you should have two more cables (one from each fan) - http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Corsair/H110/images/H110_close7.jpg - that you can also plug into the motherboard fan headers (system headers)

In the BIOS of the board disable any CPU fan speed control so the pump gets a constant voltage.

I had already plugged the two fan cables from the H110 into the spare fan controller sockets should i re-route these to the mobo fan headers or are they ok where they are?
