Quick question about my Power Supply

Solved

I am doing my first PC build and I am using a few tutorials to help guide me through. I hit a road block when I got to installing the PSU because all the PSU's in the videos have the cords already installed in them but mine just came with the cords in the box. I have 3 SATAs, 4 VGAs, 2 CPUs, and 2 PATA cords. Do I plug every last one of them in or do I only need to plug a certain amount in? It's an EVGA NEX650 G Power Supply. Thanks

Only plug in the cables you need to use. The other cables can be left in the box.

You only need to plug in what cords you need with a modular Supply. 24Pin ATX for motherboard, 4/8 pin CPU (1 or 2 depending on your motherboard), and however many you need for your devices.
