Antec CP-1000 user manual

7.PCI-E graphics cards use different amounts of power. For some, a single 6-pin connector is sufficient, and the hardwired connector is the preferred choice. More powerful cards use multiple connectors, including the advanced 8-pin PCI-E connector. The 8-pin PCI-E connector on the CP-1000 can be used as either a 6- or 8-pin connector.

8.Hard drives, optical drives (CD/DVD/BluRay™), and other accessories will use either the older 4-pin Molex connector or the newer 15-pin SATA connector. 4-pin Molex connectors have two black wires, a yellow, and a red. The SATA connector has an additional orange power wire.

9.When you have all the connections secured, turn the switch on the PSU to the “” position.
