Step 6.

Connect Front Panel Switches/LEDs/Speaker/USB

You can find there are several different cables already existing in the system

case and originating from the computer's front-panel devices (HDD LED,

Power LED, Reset Switch, PC Speaker, or USB devices etc.) These cables

serve to connect the front-panel switches, LEDs, and USB connectors to the

mainboard's front-panel connectors group (J1 and USB2/3), as shown below.
