I have a gigabyte b150m-ds3h.
I need to configure internal connectors. I have F audio and F usb1 plugged in.
left I have
Pled
HD
Power
Reset
Speaker
and Power LED
And also F Panel 1

howver I dont have enough cables.
I have a mixture of 1 and 2 pin connectors that add up to 8 pins.
I prioritized
Pled power and speaker, but I had to use cables labeled HDD led and power SW, none actually labeled on what I need.
I also dont have F panel 1 plugged in, which do i need?
What do I do, I havnt turned on my computer because I dont want to mess anything up and I do not have my mobo manual.

most cases will not have a speaker anymore, in any case it is optional. optional but useful when troubleshooting.

IDK what the 2 pin F panel one is. which case do you have? that would be in the case manual/leaflet.

needed: power switch
Optional: everything else
LEDs can be swapped, HDD led can be plugged into Pow LED and vise versa.
Switches can be swapped
LEDs cannot be swapped for switches or speakers
an LED is an LED, a switch is a switch

on the front panel connector there is only one that is necessary. a power switch. you can use the reset switch if you like but you need a way to turn on the PC. the LEDs are annoying, IMHO, so I leave them disconnected - they are optional. the reset switch is also optional many cases do not even have them. I suggest the speaker as a must, but that is personal, the speaker is the main diagnostic feedback device.

this is your manual so you can reference. page 16 has the front panel pinout

I dont have a pin labeled speaker, can i use a different pin, like an LED one for speaker?
also there is a 2 pin connector labeled F panel, should I plug that in?

F Panel is the entire 20 pin block that the switches, LEDs and speaker plug into. page 13 and page 16 number 7.

"there is a 2 pin connector labeled F panel" you lose me here. I thought you had a 2 pin wire from the case labeled F Panel
