Hi! I am custom building a case, but I need a front panel card reader that has a Power SW on it,

On the card reader I need a SD Card, Micro SD Card, Power SW
Would be nice if it had a Reset SW, and some USB 2.0/3.0/3.1 but not needed.
I will pay extra for nice, I don't like buying cheap(especially since my PC setup will cost close to $9000... So, might as well pay for some of the better stuff. But I don't want super expensive.)

Also, the overall partlist is http://pcpartpicker.com/p/kKBxvK which I know I could build a much better or just as good PC for less.(please don't tell me what I should change. I don't care right now, no offense)


P.S. I'm building something like this http://bit.ly/1VFSgjm so I have to have a front panel power SW and card readers.

Thanks in advance(not in huge hurry, only have a few hundred dollars towards this... so it will be like 2+ years, in which most of the parts will change, because cheaper and better architecture, ETC. But never too early to begin planning...)

I see now.
I recently ordered this power switch for testing on motherboards without a power on button.

Buy two they are cheap, and quality may be spotty.
But, they include the hdd and pwr leds which is a nice touch.
You will need to drill some holes in the front of the desk to mount them.
Some adhesive caulk or epoxy should be sufficient to hold them in place.

I don't think I've seen any card readers with integrated power/reset buttons.

However, those buttons really are just dumb buttons. You can buy any dumb SPST momentary button, and it'll work. Just need to get leads, which are standard 0.1" spacing (asus boards are double spaced on the power button).

I'm basically taking a table, cutting a hole in the top, putting a piece of plywood about 8 inches under the top of the hole, building my PC in the hole I cut on the wood(will have stand offs). and the putting acrylic on top to protect it, and so i can put stuff on top of it. and Voila! i have a desk, that has a PC build in.

So a lot like this http://bit.ly/1VFSgjm
should have said that i was building my PC in my desk earlier...
