If it as a 20 or 24 pin connector and a 4 pin connector then it is a ATX power supply.
24 pin connector is required to supply power to the motherboard.
power supply
There should be a large connector coming from the Power Supply unit. You may have a 20 pin or a 24 pin connector on your motherboard. Most power supplies come with a 20+4 pin connector which allows them to connect to both 20 and 24 pin mother bards.
The atx 12 connector is one of the motherboard power connectors and used for 12 volt power connect for cpu voltage regulator.
Many/most motherboards have a separate power connector for the CPU. Check your motherboard's installation instructions to locate the CPU power connector. Then connect the matching power supply cable to the CPU power connector on the motherboard.
The most common power supply connectors for motherboards will be either a 20 or 24 pin connector. Older unit used less pins like the ATX but the cure standard is the 20 or 24 pin main connector.
The SATA connector on a power supply is to supply power to SATA-based hard drives. It is not to be confused with the ATX plug that is to give extra power to the CPU, nor the PCI-e power connectors that give extra power to certain video cards. It is unexpected to find a SATA style connector on the motherboard.

If you are refering to the 20 or 24 pin molex connector, this is the motherboard power distribution subsystem from the power supply. If you are refering to the several other small connectors, they have various functions. Front panel indicators and switchs, USB distribution connectors, fans, CD audio, etc.
To connect the power cord from the power supply to the PS2 power connection on the motherboard, locate the 4-pin connector on the power supply cable and line it up with the corresponding 4-pin PS2 power connection on the motherboard. Gently press and secure the connector into place until it clicks. Ensure the connection is secure and the power cord is properly routed to avoid any interference with other components.
