Power Help: 2 Pin Connectors

[ChooseCooMcGoo]

My Motherboard, an Asus m5a97 Le R2 says under it's manual that i'll need 2 pin connectors to have the my computer build turn on. My PSU doesn't list any 2 pin connectors, what do I do? The 2 pin connector I'm most worried about is the power button one.

They come from your case not the psu.

Just check your case, it must have the to pins POWER SW commector (as well as the RESET SW etc..), just plugg it into the front panel mobo connector, in order to get the case power button to funtion.
You can get help from motherboard manual.

^ As said above check you motherboard manuel for the correct location on the motherboard. But the two wire connector you are talking about does come from the case's power switch and not the power supply. There will be a row of pins,most motherboard there are two rows, close to the front bottom of the motherboard were your power switch reset switch power on led hdd led plug into. That is where that two wire connector plugs into.
