I'm upgrading into a new case and my current front panel connectors connect with a single wire/block. It's a 10pin connector, does all 10pin connecters work the same way? (https://gyazo.com/76330a07d479bcd0fa9731bf0c607373) It's a prebuilt PC so I don't have a manual for the mobo.

They should. The motherboard should be labeled though as far as the function for the pins.

 Most prebuilts have them in one big cable but most aftermarket cases have them seperated and you will have to put them to the right places. But if your current cable is like the one in the image then you know where to put them. On every cable header there should read what it is eg. pwr+ or pwrled+/- etc.

step one - talk to her

step two - fight with her for 2 hours even if you are really right

step three - admit that she is right for the sake of your safety

step four - realize that you have accomplished nothing and she still thinks you were wrong and now she thinks you are even more stupid

I'm going to say the pinout may not be the same, but front panel headers on cases have the plugs for the components separated so even if they play a game of musical chairs with the pinout, you won't be left with something you can't plug in.

I have a blog! And a list of guides I've posted
