Hey everyone, new to the boards and I have a problem. I just bought the ASUS A8V Deluxe motherboard and a new case. I'm trying to connect the front panel audio connectors from the case to the motherboard. The problem is that the cable comming from the case has a 1/8? size cable (same size as a headphone jack) and the motherboard has the 9 pin connecter.

Is there anyway I can connect the two? Any type of device that I can buy that will do the conversion?

Thanks to all who reply!

I think you're supposed to connect those 1/8th" plugs to your sound ports (on your sound card / back of motherboard), not your motherboard.

I thought of that, but the only problem then is that it takes away the use of the back ports. I really wanted to be able to have my speakers plugged in at the back, and then have the option of using headphones at the front when needed.
