Front Panel Connector

[alex_figueroa22]

I'm using a ROG STRIX B350-F Gaming motherboard.

It wont turn on. My front panel connector for power led has 3 sections (1pin1blank1pin) and the manual assumes that i have a 2-pin PWR led. Idk what to do. My manual is open and im on page 1-17 and my computer just wont turn on.

The PLED+ and - are next to each other on the top line of pins. The 2 pins beside it are for the power

You connect the speaker to the other 4 pins on the top row

I dont know why there's 2 sets of PLED pins. 2 on the top and 2 on the bottom row.

You only need one.

If you want to use the bottom set of PLED pins, cut the connector (coming from the front of the case) in half with a stanley knife

Im using a new motherboard with some generic old case from like 2011. My AM4 slot asus mobo has these. Im afraid maybe my 4 little connectors just cant power a B350 motherboard?? Im sort of panicking. i waited a week for my parts to come in just to find out i need to order a new fancy case with front panel connectors that are compatible?

You'll have to take a pic of the connections / case. So we can see what it looks like
