modybird · Jan 29, 2016

Im getting a new mobo for my old pc case (not a bad pc case never had overheating problems) and i just heard of front panel connectors. Are these found in the pc case or what? Im going to buy this mobo

For my HP 500B microtower. Will it be compatible?

The front panel connectors are the cables that connect things like power button, usb ports etc that are on the case to the motherboard. these come attached to the case already.

Are you aware that this new motherboard is incompatible with your old CPU?

They are standard. On your current motherboard you should have a series of cables that have a connector end that looks like this.

Your new motherboard will a manual that instructs you where to connect them but it should look like this,

The USB connector will say USB on it and on the board there will be a series of pins that will say something like USB1 next to it.
