Thread: Grounding wire? ?

Most of the news ones come with an adapter.

Irony on that is my 200 dollar Asus board didn't come with an adapter (I dont mind putting them on by hand though)...

I need to find pictures for hookups. I am worried about screwing it up.

Just be patient and don't rush! My first (and only build) took over 24 hours, but part of that was me being OCD about good wire management. I'm hoping the next one is quicker...knocksonwood.

Try the manufacturers' websites.

It has been completed with help from warprosper and a 30 minute conversation. Wire management isn't finished, but it works ... Yay

Well unfortunately they dont make jumper cables compatible with large hands :P :P

For cable management, use zip ties or twist ties. I use a combination of both, zip ties in the back of the case where I won't normally be moving wires, and twist ties in the front where I will want to re-use them.
