How do I install the EVGA 750GQ power supply in my computer?

[DeDelilah]

Installing the EVGA 750GQ power supply into your computer is straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Unpack the Power Supply: Remove the EVGA 750GQ from its packaging.
2. (Optional) Pre-Installation Test: You can optionally use the provided PSU testing tool. Connect the 24-Pin cable to the PSU and attach the testing tool to the cable. Then, connect the ATX power cable to the PSU and plug the PWR cable into a wall outlet or a surge protector/UPS. Turn the power switch on the PSU to the ON position. This step is particularly recommended for water cooling setups, aiding in bleeding, draining, or testing components.
3. Mount the Power Supply: Use the screws included with your computer case to secure the EVGA 750GQ power supply. It's generally recommended to install the PSU with the fan facing downwards. However, if your case has the PSU at the bottom and lacks ventilation holes there, consider installing it with the fan facing upwards for improved efficiency and reliability.
4. Connect the 24-Pin ATX Cable: Plug the 24-Pin ATX cable into both the EVGA 750GQ and the motherboard.
5. Connect the EPS12V Cable: Connect the 4+4-Pin EPS12V cable to the motherboard. If your motherboard supports additional CPU power (8-Pin or 4-Pin) for extreme overclocking or dual CPU setups, connect the second 4+4-Pin EPS12V cable as well.
6. Connect PCI-E Cables: Connect the 6/6+2-Pin PCI-E cables to your graphics card(s). Be careful not to plug an 8-Pin PCI-E cable into a 6-Pin connector without detaching the extra two pins.
7. Connect SATA Power Cables: Connect SATA power cables to all your data drives (SSDs or HDDs) and optical drives (if any).
8. Connect Peripheral Power Cables: Connect the peripheral "Molex" 4-Pin connectors to fans, pumps, legacy components, and any other devices or adapters that require them.
9. Finalize Connections: Connect the AC power cord to the EVGA 750GQ power supply and the wall outlet. Double-check all connections to ensure they are secure, then turn the power switch on the power supply to the ON position.
