Motherboard exits coolermaster ammo 553

[redearedslider]

Well, i've decided to buy a new case, not that i need to now but because this on has such tight quarters i'm gonna go for a new one, now i've got a couple of questions...

first one, when i got this case the cousin i got it from already put the mobo in, but i was wondering, the plate that's on the backside of the pc where all the, by example, printer ports and usb ports come out, does that come out so i can place it with my mobo in my new case ? or does it just leave a big gaping hole between the internet interface and stuff ??

second off all, anybody know this case and know if its any good ??

well, many thnx

Re: Motherboard exits coolermaster ammo 553

All faceplates are designed to be removed/replaced on standard ATX cases so the motherboards native one can be used.

If it doesnt pop out, its a POS case

Get a screw driver butt and knock the stock face plate out. Your motherboard should have a custom faceplate that matches your ports.

Re: Motherboard exits coolermaster ammo 553

the case *should* have cables coming from those USB ports that you wire to your available onboard USB connectors. Or you can install a PCI card with USB connections and do it that way if you dont have any onboard.

Re: Motherboard exits coolermaster ammo 553

You've entirely missed what i mean about "onboard"

I DONT mean the ones on the back, i mean the pin clusters on the motherboard itself (inside the case, in a random spot somewhere in the vicinity of the southbridge.)

Its a cluster of 7 or 9 pins, i cant remember. You connect the cable thats on the case to it, and it makes it so the case USB ports are useable.

The LED's, power button, reset button, and HDD activity will have cables as well that go on the motherboards pins for those.
