The case is an Antec 300.
Ok heres my first problem. [Done]
These are the fan things since i don't know the lingo :v: The built in fans to be exact. I put them in each for no apparent reason.

Where do i put them since there are no holes for them or nuthin and i know they need power but i don't know where.
Secondly. [Half Done]
These are a bunch of left over wires from my PSU which is a 650W XFX. I don't know what the hell to do with them and if i need them or not.

Thirdly [Done]
These are some random wires that i got with something, i think the motherboard. God knows what to do with them...

It would be awesome if you guys could help me and if you need anymore pictures of any parts tell me.

I have also just found a bag that says 'Modular Cables' and one looks like it would fit on the fans and then into the PSU.

is that an XFX PSU?
the first picture, they're molex connectors, there should be male connectors coming out the PSU that look like this

just plug them in
at least some of the cables in the second picture seem to be PCI-E, if your graphics card needs more power than the motherboard can supply there will be connectors on either the top of back of the card for them
the third picture has SATA cables, they connect optical drives and hard drives to the motherboard
Ah thanks. I think i fitted the fans now as it has one connector going into the PSU, then both of the fans are connected to the wire then it has a 4 pin thing at the end which i plugged into the CPU Fan since it was the only one with 4 prongs. Is that right?

Also is it alright to power up my system to see if the fans work. Note i don't have a CPU, RAM or GPU.
did you use standoffs?

Just don't leave it there it will cause your PC to overheat.
Do i plug the other side of the case fans into the CPU fan slot? Or would that not work. Or could i leave it unplugged and only plugged into the PSU?
Also can i turn on the PSU to see if the fans work..?
