this is why i recommend MSI motherboards to people that have never built a pc as everything is colour coded and very clearly labeled.
I do like the M-Connectors that come with the new boards. Just connect the leads to the M-connector, then plug it into the relevent block of pins. Save messing about trying to connect individual pins to the main board.
I would also recommend that before you even buy any components that you read up on them as you don't want to buy a motherboard only to find out that the latest CPU you bought isn't supported with out a bios update.
