Well don't have PSU yet but decided to save some hassle and get everything ready. Thing is front panel connection is pain in the ass. It's labeled what each one is but there are 5 pins on bottom and only 4 connections on the bottom and I can't tell whether to leave a space or not. Can you help?  Guessing power button is top 2 right because it needs 2 pins

It looks a little confusing. Look at your motherboard's manual that came with your mobo or search it up online and look at the front panel header section. It should be a bit more clear there.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Hopefully. I just took a shower so probably shouldn't be leaning over PC but I'll google it later. I only really care if power and reset are correct right. Think I would know if HDD wasn't spinning or power wasn't on
