Hi everyone, 

I'm building a game pc and have all the components. I was installing all the parts when I found these cables. They are from my case. Where do they need to get plugged in on the motherboard?

Any other tips with building will also be appreciated. :D 

Thanks in advance!

check your manual for that, there is a pin array on the bottom of the board where they need to go in in a particular order.

called front panel connectors

ah, front panel connectors - they're always so tedious.

It should be near the middle on the very bottom of your board, check your manual for the layout

the power and reset headers don't matter which way you put it in (+,-).

Woo!
