Hi Everyone,

I am having trouble knowing which wires to connect to my motherboard for the audio connectors on my case.

I have 8 wires to connect to my motherboard. Labelled as follows

GND - Black
GND - Black (Thinner)
MIC IN - Orange
MIC IN - Green
ROUT - Yellow
RIN - Brown
LIN - Blue
LOUT - Red

I have read my motherboard manual and here's the connectors it lists

GND
+5VA
BACKOUT-R
BACKOUT-L
MIC
MIC-POWER
AUD-OUT-R
AUD-OUT-L
DUMMY

Does anyone knoe which wires I should be connecting to which connector.

Any help would be appriciated

The connector should look somthing like this..... You may have jumpers covering the yellow and purple spots on my image.... Take these off...

Blue spot = Mic Power - Your Orange MIC IN
Red spot = Ground - Your GND Black
Green spot = Mic In - Your Green MIC IN
Yellow spots = Right Audio - Your Brown RIN and Yellow ROUT (any way will do)
Purple spots = Left Audio - Your Blue LIN and Red LOUT (any way will do)

Your GND Black (thinner) may be spare that is ok or if you like you could put it on the pin between the yellow and purple spots...

Some cases are usless for these connections i just wish they complied with an ISO standard, but you cant have everything : )

Remember the orientation of my graphic, yours maybe another way but usually is the same....

Try that and let me know if it worked? Remember to make sure your MIC is un-muted in the sound properties!
