Hi!
recently i bought a new power supply for my PC...unfortunately i can't connect the front LCD panel of my computer case because the old PSU had
a small connector comming out and the new one is not designed to have one.
The connector has 3 wires... i measured the voltages comming out from and i'm getting 5V
BLACK 5V- (ground)
RED 5V+
PURPLE 5V+ (5V+ standby)
these wires are connected to the correspoding ones of the ATX connector,
and i don't understand why it uses 3 wires and why it take the 5V+ from the purple wire of the ATX connector, i'm not willing to open the PSU so i can connect the way it was in the old PSU... can somebody help me so i don't mess anything?
