Hey everyone, 

 

building in the NZXT H510i elite and there are 2 cables that I have no idea where to plug in. Photos are attached. One of them is for the LED strip but where is there a spot to plug it in to? Also on the back I have absolutely no idea what that cable is for. Any help is appreciated. 
 

Thanks

It would help if the connectors were in focus (if you're taking the photo on your phone, tap the area you want to be in focus, and if the phone can't focus, move the cable slightly farther away)

 

2nd one seems like maybe a USB 3.1 header? (your motherboard might not have anywhere to plug this into)

 

have you checked the case's manual?

first one is a 12v 4 pin non-addressable RGB plug, second is for your front panel USB type C connector.

 

I don't see the type C internal header on the edge of your MB so you probably don't have one. There are little adapters to let you connect that type C plug into the older USB 3.0 header that I see unoccupied though - of course that will only run connected devices at 3.0 speeds but at least you'll be able to use it.

 

Just to make sure we're not missing anything, what motherboard model do you have?

Laptop: Razer Blade Pro 2019 9750H model, 32GB @ 3200mHz CL18 G.Skill Ripjaws DDR4, 2x Samsung 960 Pro 1TB RAID0, repasted with Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut

Where did you see the USB-C connector for the moto? I have an MSI X570-A PRO

First one looks like a rgb header, second one is a internal usb c header, your mobo doesn’t have one so just tuck that aside. I’ve done the same.

Your board doesnt have that header on it.
