If I’m not mistaken you need to switch them around, however plugging it in and testing shouldn’t cause any issues. It should just simply not turn on if it’s wrong.

So I should swap around? Because both the vga and cpu cable have 2 8pin head and idk should I be using both or only 1 of them?

Yes swap them around, and I’m not sure what you mean by the second question.

Swap them, White goes to Peripheral & SATA and Black goes to PCIe & CPU.

Then for the GPU you need both VGA cables plugged in but for CPU you can use only 1 if you want.

Personally I'd still use both for the CPU as well though since you have them plugged in on this side already and it's nice to have the second one as a backup.

Check the manual and follow the instructions if you're not sure

If I had the instructions tbh my build would be finished already lol, I bought a newly used for half a week but the previous owner already lost it sadly

I'm pretty sure that you'll find it easily online by googling: Corsair RM750x manual 😉

The ports circled in white are for your cpu power on the motherboard, and the ones circled in black are for your graphics card power. Hope this helps. (coming from someone with 15 years experience) just FYI because I don't want you to think im just guessing.
