Mystery Wires

[digginhut]

I bought a new tower in 2008. Its a Compaq Presario SR5710F. It has a 1250 Watt power supply. I have put in a new secondary 400 GB hard drive (Works Great). A VGA/DVI/HDMI XFX ONE video card. A super speed USB 3.0 PCI Express Card. A second fan. but now I'm left with two wires. and I don't quite know what they do. I feel like I mine as well find something to do with them. So If anyone could help me that would be great. At least just tell me what I could use them for.

The question is,
What are these two wires for?

It comes with a 250w PSU. Which GPU did you buy specifically? Depending on the model, you might be overloading the PSU.

Those two are floppy power connectors.

Whoa, those things still exist?! o.0

Haven't seen a functional floppy drive or that connection in years.

Yea, pre-built from 2008 lol.

Did you put it in there yourself? Because if not, it comes with a 250w PSU as specified by their site.

From the picture, that appears to be the stock psu, which is in-fact a 250w PSU...
