Since my current mobo is kinda old and doesnt have connectors to where i could connect case reset switch, power switch etc. i was planning on getting this motherboard MSI H61MA-E35 (B3). Does this have those case connectors?

Also, ifi buy new mobo i need to reinstall windows. My current hdd has windows, but if i buy new ssd and install windows on it. Does it work or hdd might mess something up since it has windows too (win10)
 
They all have case connectors and all are marked still same as many years ago. Only some MB s from brand name computers may have them soldered on MB or integrated.
