Hi,

Bought my gfs son a lian li vision case. When transferring everything over I had a problem connecting the front panel and front audio connectors, they seem to be a slightly different size to the predator case connectors. Is there a work around for this?

Thanks in advance

    The Predator Orion PO9-900 mainboard is an Acer proprietary mainboard that is made for an Acer case and NOT for a LIan Li case. If the front panel connectors don't fit, then search the web for appropriate Acer plugs that you can change so that they fit to the front panel PO9-900 mainboards Acer pins or solder those connection onto the pins, as a last result. Acer does not sell these pins individually. Good luck and hope this helps you out.

    Here is the full front panel connectors detailed for the PO9-900 and what they do:

    The pinouts of that connector are fairly standard across the industry and the connector itself is on 0.100" centers, which is also pretty standard. Which of Lian Li's case models did you get? What's different about their connector?
