[SOLVED] Help with front panel connector compatibility?

[lzech]

Hello, I'm a bit new with computers and needed help with some things. So my last motherboard was a stock dell one and I was trying to put it into a Phanteks 350x eclipse ( all i need to do is plug in a power sw cord ) and learned that that the front panel ports are different. I wanted to know if an "ASRock H87WSA-DL ATX Server Motherboard LGA 1150 Intel H87 Dual Channel DDR3 1600 / 1333 UDIMM" would work with the case. I also have an i5-4460 and an gtx 970 ssc so if you could tell me if those worked with it as well, it'd be greatly appreciated. I've been stressing trying to figure this stuff out and find the right motherboard and theres not many at $100 that work with my cpu.

The picture on the ASRock site look like standard connections for power and front panel. That motherboard is standard ATX form factor and the P350x case supports ATX motherboards.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from lzech : "Server motherboard for gaming?"

Hi i just recently found out that the “ASRock H87WSA-DL ATX Server Motherboard LGA 1150 Intel H87 Dual Channel DDR3 1600 / 1333 UDIMM“ ill be getting is a server mobo. Can i still use it for regular use and gaming with my gtx 970 ssc?? On their websites it says it only has a “VRAM = Max. shared memory 1760MB” does this mean my graphics card would be limited? If so can you guys recommend me a motherboard that can fit a i5-4460, gtx 970 ssc, and has regular front panel connectors for a pwrsw cord under $120?

i was just wondering where the front panel connector port is for a pwrsw cord from the p350x case.

The User's manual -- http://asrock.pc.cdn.bitgravity.com/Manual/H87WSA-DL.pdf has the answer. See PDF page 29.
