so i have a prime a320m-a motherbaord that has a 10-1 pin for front panel connectors, but the case that is supposedly compatible came with three 2 pin connectors. can i still connect them, and if so, how? all of the parts were bought using pcpartpicker. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/v93sJ8

You don't need to populate all 9 pins. Just look for the pin layout on the motherboard (I assume it's there since it's not in the motherboard). Look on the motherboard for labels like:

PLED+ / PLED-
HDD+ / HDD-
RSW+ / RSW-

Match these up with the two pin cables coming from the case front panel.

Note: If the cables from the case front panel are not labeled + and -, each pair will share one color (Red/White, Blue/White, Black/White, etc). The like colored wires are going to be the negative wire.
