Hi Folks,

 

Just need a little help - working on assembling a new build - a little confused on the front panel header.

 

The MOBO has 5 connectors related to “power led” - my case has 2 leads for “power led”... I’m assuming I should use the 2 pins on the upper left of the header block - - - any idea what the 3 on the lower right of the header block are used for ?

Thanks...

Scott, I just went through this. This is the most stressful part of a new build for me. I invariably mess something up and have to redo it. You are correct. The pins you identified are the ones you want to use. The others may be for a different kind of case. Good luck.

It's probably to accommodate cases with a 3-pin LED connector (+ NC -) or (+ - NC)

Hi Bob/Ryan,

Thanks as well...

Yeah - I think we all worry about breaking something - this is my first de-lid - so even more potential for issues...

Regards,

Scott
