I’m putting together an i5 4690 with a MSI Z97 U3 Plus motherboard and I have an Antec 750 watt power supply. When I push the power button on my case nothing happens. A couple of times it tune on for half a second then die. I have a good power cord. I have the 6 pin plug into the motherboard because it won’t take all 8 pins and I doubled check my power switch which the lettering is supposed to face the outside of the board. Any suggestion?
 
Youre not suppossed to put a 6 pin pci e connector into the cpu power, I.read that this may fry the cpu and mobo. as far as I can understand, you pit a six pin into a 8 pin, just put the four pin in. if you have a four pin socket, your eight pin should be able to split into 2 four pin connectors
 
What specific model of power supply do you have? All high end units should have an 8 pin cpu power connection. Hopefully you didn't fry anything.
