V quick: GA-EX58-UD5 power connectors

[Mach234 (or similar).]

Hi,

Just a v quick one, putting together my first build this morning, using the GA-EX58-UD5 motherboard . It has two power connectors an ATX (24-pin) and a 12V (8-pin). The manual is a bit ambiguous, do I connect both? Don't want to blow it up..! (soz for daft question)..

Many thanks...

Yes you connect both, one is purely for the CPU, the other provides the rest of the board with juice. If you are unsure about any of the connectors, check the manual.
