Stick the 2x2 plug into the 2x4 socket on the mainboard.

It will fill half the socket, leaving the other half empty. This is okay.

Well, the mobo booklet says these four pins are 12v so fuck it, I'll give it a go. I just hope it's enough to power my hdd, ssd, gtx 750ti and cpu: Fx8350.

Thanks anon

I'm only tech savvy enough to order compatible parts and build it. How would I check this? I listed my cpu above earlier.

Also, it has turned on! So far so good. But Planetside 2 on ultra will test for burning wires

I'd use eight wires if I were you.
