Connecting front USB to motherboard

[Mightyprocrastinator]

Hey guys,

So, I am having quite a rough time putting an older machine together; it is suddenly very obvious to me, that I haven´t spend much time playing with hardware the last 15 years - a lot has changed!!!
I have these connectors from the front bay which has USB, audio and so on, but I have NO idea where or how to plug them into my motherboard!

Anybody that might be able to provide some assistance? That would be amazing.
Thanks guys, cheers.


The cabinet is an older model from Thermaltake.
The motherboard is a Gigabyte Z77-DS3H

Your motherboard manual will show exactly where to put them. Many motherboards are different in this aspect so you'll have to use the manual.

Cool... So I just connect them to the audio connector and it works; but what about the USB coming via the same cables, will it work this way too??!?
