Hi guys, so i'm actually wondering how i should plug the case's front io ports to. I know that it is like at the bottom right of the motherboard, but how do which connector is for which? I remember some people saying that where the words on the front io ports wires face also matters, can someone help and give me a very specific one, better a picture as my brain cannot process to much of words. Thank you!

What motherboard and case do you have?

I could draw a little diagram for you on what connectors you need.

These are some little cable that come from your case.

Be sure to note the + and - on the PLED and HDLED cables and plug them in the right way.

The motherboard doesn't have a port for that, so the USB Type C port wouldn't work for OP.

But the manual for the O11 Dynamic does not make mention of using the internal header, strangely 🤔

My bad. I could have swore that Mobo mentioned type c. There are so many variations of the O11 that it doesn't surprise me.

The motherboard does not make any mention of front panel type C/USB 3.2 gen 2. Usually it's around the 24 pin ATX connector which I do not see any such type c connector on the diagram.

The case manual does mention in passing the Type C port, but does not go into detail about how to connect it. I doubt it connects via the 'normal' USB 3.0 connector though.

Yeah there is a special header for it and it was my bad I thought the mobo did.
