Title: GIGABYTE TRX40 AORUS XTREME and F_PANEL custom cable
Post by: Deckard51 on May 06, 2021, 09:17:28 am

Hello

Gigabyte came up some time ago to use a different front panel connection in top motherboards than it is standard, i.e. there is no standard socket in the board for placing specific plugs from power, reset and td only in the board that is in the subject and other top models from the AORUS series there is a new small socket in the board and an appropriate adapter (see the links below). Unfortunately (for me) I bought the TRX40 AORUS XTREME board without this cable / adapter and the source where I bought the disc does not have this cable.

Does any of you know where to buy this adapter / cable?

Hello, I bought from a private person. This person doesn't have that cable.
I wrote a request for Gigabyte support, waited 2 weeks for a response, and the answer
is "this is your problem", namely:
" Kindly note we do not sell the accessories individually. Please contact your supplier for assistance. "

And now I have a top motherboard that I turn on with a button on the board, so the case is constantly open. Thank goodness for a big Power button on the motherboard .... :(

That's unfortunate.  Leaving the case open defeats all of the benefits of proper cooling and protection from dust.  Plus it doesn't look great. 

Lesson learned.
