So I finally got around to finishing sleeving my psu. But during the process I got lazy and decided not to actually label each wire. So with the wires with multiple molex, I have the correct 5v/12v pin placement, but I was wondering "could I actually mix up ground wires? Say one ground wire is at 2 on one molex, but then it's on 3 on the next molex, would that make a difference?

I don't think it would, but I've figured everything out the hard way...EVERYTHING. I'd rather not say whatever and go ahead and fry my $3000 computer. But if this actually could cause problems, what would be the easiest way to test the psu and connectors to see if it all works without jeopardizing my components?

Thanks in advance.

Oh, and I hope this is the right forum for this.

It shouldn't matter since ground is usually connected to the same place on a PSU. I did a modular mod to one of my PSUs and put them back in seperate order "ground wires only" and it doesn't affect anything.

Agree with Jess...

Ground is ground is ground as far as i know. All goes to the same place so you will be fine

Ground is also known as common because it is all tied together. LIke the others said, you're fine.

Thanks a bunch guys, it seems everything worked well...after I figured out I switched the wires around on the atx 12v connector, but luckily that was my only mistake. It's looking pretty sweet so far, just need more uv cathodes for the bottom of my case.

Thanks again.
