    Your motherboard has none of those. Those are all power supply cable connectors and only the 20-pin and the 4-pin connectors connect to motherboards.

    The floppy connector supplies power from the PSU to the floppy drive, and the molex supplies power from the PSU to fans and drives. They don't connect to the motherboard.

    Do you have your manual? What does it show? If you don't, do what I did, and download it from ASUS. Are you 100% sure you have an ASUS P5Q Deluxe motherboard? I ask because CLEARLY, on page 2-2 of YOUR manual, it shows a 24-pin connector AND a required 8-pin power connector.

    Note the 4-pin you showed teams up with the 20-pin for newer motherboards that use 24-pins. That still leaves the issue with the 8-pin 12V connector your manual says your motherboard needs.

    The 20 pin socket is on the front side of the ASUS P5Q Deluxe motherboard half way up just above the red SATA sockets.

    And the 4-pin is right next to it, right? Now what about the 8-pin your manual says is required?
