that looks like a power cable for lighting or a fan or something, you need to trace the wires back to where it came from within your new case.

Looks like a case fan connector. 12 volt and a ground.

I traced it back, and it's connected to the front panel with "12v/oon" mark. What does it mean?

Its likely to power up some part of the front panel. Whats the model and brand of the case? Does it have like lighting or a fan controller or something?

It's thermaltake f51, and yes it has a fan on the front which btw isn't working when I turn on the PC (back fan is working) and I also have on front fan up and down speed but since it isn't moving...

It's a molex connector. Some fans and front panel fan controllers use this for power. Sometimes you find a fan connector has both the motherboard connection and a molex connection. This gives you a way to power the fan if you can't connect to the board.

Hmm, I can't find the cable to connect it to...

You need to find a cable from your PSU with this end

That will power it.

Ok found it, but it's too short, and it has a 4 pin connector for motherboard. Any solutions?

If it has 4 pin connector instead then use that to your motherboard's fan headers they can control it.

You found what? Attached to what? Did you find the male end of the molex connector coming from your PSU?

No worries man, it's all working now. It's the connector for my front fan.
