Alienware Area 51 (R1) Skylake Processor / Motherboard / EVGA 1600 P2 Power Supply Swap

I updated my Alienware Area 51 (R1) with an Intel Skylake Processor, EVGA motherboard and EVGA 1600 P2 power supply. Forum member Cass-Olé helped me figure out the power supply and wiring requirements for a successful swap.

Cass-Olé updated the following article that covers the EVGA T2 P2 G2 Power Supplies, which have their own unique cables and pin out. The information is not applicable to any other model PSU.
