im building my own computer for the first time and i have the motherboard and all the hardware in the right spot but i can't figure out where all the wires go, i have yet to get it to boot up. can anyone help me out with a guide or something?
 
for "data parts" like hard drives and dvd drives, i usually have dedicated "rails" (or wires) plugged into them rather than having one rail hooked up to other things as well

do the 4/8 pin motherboard rail, the 24 pin motherboard rail next,
i usually have all my fans either plugged directly into the motherboard or hooked up together with a single molex connector (4-pin)

i'd refer to the motherboard manual to see what cables go where. hope this helps
 
You may need help!

General connections are pretty straight forward, but for front panel connections you need to refer to motherbard manual.
