Need multifunction front panel help

T*@$t · 08-November-04, 08:26 PM

I am looking for a multifunction front panel to add front-end sound ports to my Kingwin-424, since it doesn't have any in the front panel. I need a Multifunction front panel that fits either a 3.5" or 5.25" bay. It must have motherboard headers, I don't want to settle for the kind you have to loop around the back and plug into the motherboard ports. I have searched high and low for this, but kind find one anywhere. See http://www.maxpoint.com/products/per...7fat/index.htm . I want one like this, but with motherboard pins instead of the looparound cables... PLEASE HELP ME!!!

You could buy one that you like the looks of, and then get out the solder and some pins, and make your own motherboard connections. It is a bit of work, but with some pin-out schematics, and a lot of patience, you can mod anything.

I've searched high and low through several sites for bay accessories and I've never seen anything like you've described other than the Audigy 2 ZS Platinum. If that doesn't interest you, then the only other thing that I can recommend is for you to get a little creative and build your own from scratch.

Sorry I didn't help much...

I have what you need. It is natural aluminum color and fits a 3.5in bay. BUT using the mobo header will disable your rear ports, you knew that right. Unless you add a switch to select which you want to use. $10 and its yours.

RIght now I have a Antec Aria. The way its setup is when i leave the speakers plugged into the back then plug my 'phones into the front, my speakers get muted and then the 'phones just work. It's basically the same concept right?
