Me again!

Not going well for me =[

I have leads that go into the motherboard from the case as i have just started building a pc

These leads from the case i have been able to put into the motherboard:

Usb,
Power SW
Reset SW
Power LED
Speaker
And HDD led

Yet there are two mystery leads that don't seem to fit anywhere:

HD audio
And AC'97

Any ideas? Are they important? Can i just leave 'em out?

Thanks

Louis

You have the ones that matter.

By the way if I were you buy all your components from the same company as if this is your first BYO.
I assume you did`nt buy from one company

 
If MS ever make anything that does not suck it will be a> Vacuum cleaner



In nature, nothing is ever right. Therefore, if everything is going right... something is wrong.

Did you not get a manual?

 
I'm not a complete idiot, some parts are missing!

Ooh ok thanks,

BYO?

And no lol, i bought from the same website but the Motherboard is ASUS and the case is Akasa

So no xD

But if they don't matter i wont really worry about them =]

And yes it did come with a manual (the motherboard)

But it made out about the other plugs but the two that i can't find it didn't even mention lol..

The 2 leads you are talking about are for the audio connectors on the front of the case so you can plug speakers/headphones/microphones in.

You can leave them out if you want and just use the connectors on the rear motherboard back-plate.........but sometimes its handy to be able to use a set of headphones etc at the front rather than having to pull the case out and fiddle around the back.

If you do want to connect them then you only connect ONE set (either HD or AC97) depending on what your motherboard supports - you will find the type and where the connector on the motherboard is by checking the manual.

No problem.


Looking at the mobo spec it comes with a SupremeFX audio card, and it is HD audio.
