So I’m new to PC building, so sorry if this is obvious or something.

so today I started my first pc build and the front panel configuration isn’t standard. I’ve never seen it before. Im not sure if I know how to setup my fans either.

I n the video, the male pins sticking out is for RGB.

The small 3 pin encased male connectors are for case fans. The 4 pin female is a standard molex connector.

 

Not sure, but the board may have a Front panel pin riser in a little baggie. Look for that. If not, give us a motherboard model number to further assist you.

I have this little connector, button can only fit small ones from my case and no other ones fit into it. It looks like this:

(they don’t fit by the way, trust me.)

Well those plug into the motherboard. One is the front panel audio jacks, the other is front panel USB for the case.

 

If you tell me the exact model of the motherboard, I can look up the schematic and circle the location where they get plugged in for ya.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've been looking into this online for 3 1/2 hours now and have found nothing. I appreciate this so so much!

 

And don't apologize for giving me the wrong info first.

No problem, you're welcome.

 

Don't forget to tag me when you get it all assembled up and running! :P

 

Edit: for reference, that information was on page 35 of the manual.

It's normal. Look it up in your motherboard manual. The connectors to the left of it are for the fans.
