Thread: wiring question about the opus 90w

Isn't this connector for the devices such as the HDD etc?

You dont want to use the switch on the case at all. You want the Opus to do the switching for you (auto on and auto off), so you connect the Opus to the power switch connector on the motherboard. I believe on mine it was a little green and white pair of wires with the little connectors on them.

ok thanks, ive got the connector to do that but is it possable to get and extension of it? with the c134, opus wont fit inside and the cable BARELY reaches outside the case if at all.

Just splice a wire onto it and lengthen it as long as you need.
