Explaining PC Front Panel Connectors

Very straight to the point and explains the right kind of information in a proper constructive way. One of a kind channel, subscribed

I have a questions: is it possible to connect both minus from the hdd and power led? To use a rgb switch it has only 1 pin for minus and 3 for the colours each

Exceptionally clear, thorough, and helpful. Thank you!

This video is really useful for newbee builders. Thank you

Lan led?

Thank you very much for this video. I've been building PCs and tinkering with PCs for years and the front panel header still gives me tons of anxiety. I didn't know that the reset, power on and speaker have no polarity, and that's why it doesn't matter how they're plugged in!

What a good 3D animation

Great content! Served me well.

You are a genius in explaining and your explanation is so easy to understand. The reason being you speak clearly, without over complicating the terminologies and thanks to you I have a much better understanding now of the front panel pins of the motherboard than I had before.

Thank you for this useful video and I like your black dress shirt. 👍

Great and helpful. Just had to replace an older Asus motherboard with a new B550-Plus. Asus decided to eliminate the connection block that came with my previous board. Anything to save pennies.
Why is there such confusion between the definition of "GRD' and '-"?

Have yet to power up but have every hope all will be seamless


Many thanks.

Life saver

Thank you for going so in depth the mobo I’m working on is being difficult

I've been coping with that very annoying non industry standard pin layout since before your time. Now however you can get motherboards with nothing but different colors on the base of the pin platform, and monochrome illustrations in the manual. 🤦 Being well into my 60's now with progressively worsening long vision I find myself wearing my glasses as well as trying to hold a magnifying glass, and sometimes a headlamp as well. Then I put a hand in front of either the light or magnifying glass and can't see jack s#*t. Can the case and motherboard industry please just agree upon a standard and make a plug and socket already!!!

So what you're saying is you do not need all of the connecter connected... only the power switch connecter to turn it on/off

An odd question but does an overwhelmingly large majority of ytube tech videos have a British or Indian accent? Statistically does that hold up? there are channels / sites for those countries.

That was very good that...explained a lot thanks

Thanks for the info. My ASRock motherboard has the map like contract details smh...

Excellent video 👍 Thank you 💜

Cash bro

What is the voltage for the power led ?

NZXT cases come with just one connection for F-Panel. Just wondered if you have tried building a computer using NZXT cases? I find just one connection better than 4 different connector cables because of my poor eye sight. Also, I find motherboards with built in IO shield better so you don't have to fiddle with all the back connectors to align properly.

Best regards.

Thank you. It clears up a lot of confusion, regardless of being used to it. Even following the instructions can still be a nightmare on quirky motherboards!

Very well done! 30 years I've built my own pcs and the case pins are always clumsy. A standard setup with one plug is a distant dream.

On m case I got 2 pin LED and on ASUS motherboards you only get 1 pin to inserts and doesn’t make sense at all. Anyone help please

This Video helped me so much i wanted to clean up the cables in my pc and i acedently pulled out These Pins THANK YOU 😪

What if my cables are all black and have no sign on which is plus or minus ?

Very well done, thank you!

Speaker AKA happy little chap😊

Very good thank you very much

Most cases have tiny small arrows on the connectors: This indicates the positive side of the connector.

Great explainer. Wish this content was available over twenty years ago for my first PC build.

Super tutorial video! When I was building my PC, I always wondered if the motherboard speaker wires had a polarity; I wish I had seen your video to learn that it does not.

Hi fellow pc builders that got point pins embedded unde rtheir nails

I built my very first PC on August, 2022. It is normal until now.
Did not realise the Motherboard was giving error sound until I plug in the mini speaker after 2 years.

Thanks for the video it saves my day

Fantastic video, thank you very much!

Congratulations for one million subscribers ❤

My front panel ( green) is active..but i did not insert any speaker in front ( only in back panel)...and humming sound coming from speaker..whats the problem in gigabyte motherboard ?? Pls help

what about the 2 Pin LED RGB SW to change case fans LED colors

I accidentally remove my Panel Cables and was totally lost on how to fix it. But your pictures of the "standart" fixed it. Thanks man

This is by far the best video on the given topic. Very detailed and simplified for everyone to understand. Ytb influencers can also watch it to learn how to make an educational video

I had one PC with a small block all labelled that you could connect the wires to, then simply connect the block to the motherbooard. Well that worked great IF the pins on the MB matched the same layout as the block, now as mentioned below it would be great if all MB's had the same layout but not all do. It would also halp if these pins were more easily seen, because once inside the case they can be hard to see what you are doing plus harder to connect them as well.

Very helpful video!
Thanks.

Has to be one of the most annoying parts of building a pc.
