Hello all, I recently purchased a new mobo, ram, and cpu. I am finally getting around to installing it all, but I’ve ran into an issue, the front panel connectors on the mother board do not match the connectors from the case.
Mobo: ASRock AB350M pro4
Case: Dell Inspiron 660
The mobo connector loooks like:

| | | | |
The case connector looks like:

As you can tell, they don’t match up. What can I do? Maybe a converter or do I have to get a new case?
 
Solution
For your own sake, get a new case. Dell, and most OEMS, will use a custom front panel. Unless you have some compelling attachment to that case, just make your life easy and go grab a normal case.
