I'm so fucking done with the retarded thread being full of fucking text walls between what might as well be fucking preteens gossiping

Someone is about to trade me Platinum Girl Scout Cookies for a few measly grams of powder caffeine because he's making homemade energy drinks with it...wtf.

can one of the resident /g/entlemen give me a rundown on how to unfuck the cable spaghetti in my computer
2017-07-25 at 4:21 AM UTC
but see all the cables are dollar tree-tier and half of them seem to be either way too long or just plain pointless. i dont know which serves what purpose either... i think at this point the best thing i could do is to read up on how to wire all the shit myself and look into the function of it all.
i did pretty much that when i was first learning about computer hardware when the time came to fix/replace borked components and i had no idea what the fuck i was doing. when i replaced the mobo a few years back i left a couple fans unplugged because the mobo didnt have enough sysfan ports for them all. since then there was been a very noticeable increase in drive temps and taking the time to rewire the computer and get some hands on experience with it is probably the smartest choice. my computer isnt a prebuilt but since my dad doesnt know jack shit about them and neither did my 7th grade self at the time they just had the fry's nerds do it. once i unfuck my financial situation i want to build a computer of my own, all by myself for both the nerd xp and saving some money. gonna have a hard time doing that if i dont have a clue on how to make my expensive pieces of silicon actually function though, tbh fam...

yeah, if you're not familiar you really want to look up what the different parts/cables do. watch a few build-log videos and they'll explain most of what they do, which should help you understand what goes where.
in terms of the fans specifically, most motherboards only have 1 CPU fan port (3 pins) and maybe 2 pwm fan ports (4 pins) - if that's not enough for you, you'll want to get splitter cables so that you can plug multiple fans into one port. if you're that-way inclined it's pretty straightforward to strip the wires down and solder them all together in parallel so you essentially have a whole bunch of fans attached to a single plug - fans don't eat a lot a of power and it takes a lot to overload the motherboard/power supply.
