I had just bought a new antec true430, but it doesnt have enough normal molex connectors, it has a couple of the new sata power connectors instead. So Ive decided to cut a string of connectors off my old power supply and replace a string of connectors on the antec.

I am currently half way though replacing the two strings of connectors. I have the 5v and 12v lines soldered back together. But when i was about to do the ground wires I realized a didnt know which ground went with which positive wire. Does this matter? Do i have to match up the ground and positive wire correctly? Or are all the grounds the same and it doesnt matter if they get mixed up?

Thanks for quick replies, this is my main comp down right now :)
 
Ground is ground. That's why they are all the same colour.
 
Cool thx, thats what I thought. But didnt want to blow up my power supply or my devices with some miss wiring.
