    Shuttle SG31G2 XPC Glamor Series

    So I managed to pick up a Shuttle SG31G2 barebones system with a dvd drive. The person I bought it from said he isn't sure if the PSU and motherboard work (CPU socket wasn't covered so I don't know if there are bent pins or not - even if there was, I wouldn't know how to fix it). I was thinking...

From what it seems after isolating each part in my case (it wasn't any of the fans or 5850 fan), I concluded the noise was coming from the PSU. I don't really know much about coil...

    Seasonic X-650 - which cable goes where? haha

    Okay so I haven't used a modular PSU before, so I'm a little lost figuring out which slots the 24-pin cable and the 8pin CPU cable go into. Even though there are labels, I still seem to be slumped. Do the 24-pin connectors go into both 'MB' slots? As for CPU,there's CPU and CPU 8P, which one...
