Dell Motherboard Power Switch Issue

I have a power switch connector on my motherboard I cannot remove, it's like a non-standard power switch from Dell. I applied pressure while pulling but I cannot remove it, if I remove it, I will probably risk damaging the connector/motherboard and not being able to power on the PC via a power button on any case (as I am moving the motherboard from the Dell standard case to a new case). Below is a picture of it. What the hell is it? And how will it connect to any other case switch in the future? My motherboard model is DELL 0GY6Y8. Any opinions on this, MASSIVELY appreciated.

You're probably not going to be able to move that motherboard to a new case, as Dell always did odd things like this. It's not a standard connector AFAIK.

It is a non-standard connector but you can probably use the wires with the pin sortof connector which you can wire up yourself without needing solder,etc

Quoting helps a bit but try making your own wiring
