wooow dude your lamp has a computer built in :O
This really got me inspired. I am going to do everything myself and make a small "control panel" out of aluminum under my desk so i dont have to reach miles under it to turn the pc on. :)
Projects projects and more projects haha!
OMG this PC is ridiculous!! I think I'm in love with it.
30 seconds into the video and I'm subscribed to your channel because you have a great presentation style. The lighting, music, audio quality, editing, and being informed on the content is right on.
This video is actually really helpful!
A power button on a case of mine died, and there is basically no way to access it, so I'm planning to buy a separate switch as you showed.
Oh it’s super helpful. Just install the button and you’re good
good video friend, will you have a schematic of the connection of the button with the cables that go to the motherboard?
Great work man
I have bought a power switch like yours from a shop store but they didn't have the wires. Can you make a short video how to connect ( solder ) the button pins ?
So could i install this in my desk so i don't have constantly reach other my table to switch on my PC?
Hahaha yea, you could definitely do that :D
i mean if ure pc is in the desk then yea sure
I built mine into my IKEA Alex stand. There are tutorials on TH-cam.
@@tom.hargraves you could just drill a hole in the case and run the cable to your desk
That’s what I came here for
is it possible to make a capacitive touch power button for a PC?
if it yes, could you make a tutorial about it
Great video, do you know where I'd be able to find just the wires needed for the on off component of the switch, as mine came unwired?
Dude, eBay
just search "power reset" in the computer section and order by cheapest to most expensive. I paid 8 bucks for mine but wanted a seller that was in Canada so I could get it shipped quicker in these Covied times. Shipping from China is two months.
So.... In order to connect up the button, you just kinda......
Plug it in?
yep
Building and working on pc’s should be common knowledge as easy as it is these days, but it’s not because everyone believes it’s hard
I like your video I try to put in on/off switch to turn on my computer and I ben try to do as for some time the computer case I made out of wood.
How would I be able to add a startup sound when pushing the button
what is the power button voltage ?
When I start building my PC one day I would want mine to look like a console I wouldn't mind if I don't have a clear case
Would this work with a random arcade button and microswitch? This looks perfect for my arcade cabinet:)
I was thinking exactly the same. Did you get one of those?
It should work with any momentary switch.
Hello. What can I do with a Dell Inspiron prebuilt that has the power button integrated onto the motherboard? Anyway to make it work in a custom case? Thanks!
I am also trying to do something like this. Any luck 11 months later?
buddy you are way better than IFR dietec and JP you are the best modder on youtube
Haha thanks a lot man! They're all great and I love their work :D
buddy can you make some more tutorials in easy and budget ways
I'll continue to make these as I'm working on my projects. What's featured in this tutorial definitely doesn't cost much to do however :)

I just want to replace the power switch and cable connected to my windows 7 PC and can't find any info on how to do this or the part.
Hi, what pins did you install the switch to? I'm having trouble finding any documentation.
mobo model + manuals.lib
you're looking for the motherboard front panel header, it should be in the manual, and labeled... which, should answer your question..
or just wing it, a lot of headers are standard/universal, therefore the same....
but some are not.. so it'll be a dice roll...
i like that asus just gives you a front panel header bracket, you can just make all your connections outside of the case, then place the female bracket (with all your connections done) onto the front panel header, done and done....
nice video
Waooo thanks!! Dude
All good :D
whats the cases name?
I'm planning on building a pc in my bedroom and having my pc by my tv and want a power button for the pc built into the shelf by my bed where I'll keep my tv remote and a 2 in 1 mouse and kb combo
That we want is a mechanism that work with low voltage 5V or 12 V and apply it ON the power button of the desktop.
That mechanism must be able to push the power button. We have already a circuit with relay and usb..
The reason is that we don't want to do anything to computer inside or any hole because we will loose the warranty.
This works great! I installed a power button next to my bed so I can turn my pc on when I wake up and by the time I walk downstairs, the pc is powered on and I’m ready to play fortnight!

nice pc
which wire goes where?
Connect - and + connections to motherboard LED headers or to a 12v supply (eg to a fan header). Connect pins 3 and 4 for switch.
I’m building a sleeper pc and I’m going to use this as my power button since the original wiring is so old
which cables would be used for this? [I'm new]
me too i just came up with the idea of building a pc, i have no idea how to do anything, though if you do have a working (or not working just so long you can see it) computer, just copy what things are needed in the new pc
I have a question how can you use this to power electricity like light bulbs
You can't, it momentarily connects two metal surfaces to create a circuit, unless you only want to turn the light on when you are holding the button down use something else
Someone knows how to use a touch button with 3 cables and two leds?
can you do 1 button to power on 2 pcs?
no don't do that
I want to try to mod the Xbox 360 start button to my pc
Thank you so much I'm so tired of jump-starting my motherboard
Haha
Which keyboard you are using?
no u
Now if only I could hook this up to my Asus G14 laptop that I use as a desktop. 🤔
I am stuck at which wire goes to which pin. Anyone know? I have a 6 pin momentary power switch.
Your motherboard should have came with a diagram in the box that shows your where the wires plug in.
@@Brovid1999 bruh
Connect - and + connections to motherboard LED headers or to a 12v supply (eg to a fan header). Connect pins 3 and 4 for switch.
How about much "v" a button should be of tho
everything is tip top but... that fking fan sticker... :DDDDDDD
does this work on a laptop?
No
if u wanna make your laptop twice the size than it is, than sure, ok well, its technically possible, but you'd need a lot of converters and this tutorial wont help that much
can i use a light switch?
it has to be "momentary" action (which means that the connection is only made when the button is pressed). Most light switches are "latching".
@@_2hu4u this comment was so helpful to me lol thanks
you can use rocket switch button or rotating button these two are mostly latching (the rotating button is also momentary). If you use LEDs that consume more, you must use a power connector (molex or the connector that powers the SATAS (PowerSata)) to obtain the extra energy (5v - 7v - 12v). Black is usually on the dsktop the neutral GND. Red is 5V (+ the GND next to RED). Yellow is 12v (+ the GND next to Yellow).
If the LED is White, Yellow, Red you can connect the + no + and - no - wires on the Motherboard for example on the HD Led and whenever you use the HDD the mounted lights will be on and off, or if the Board only indicates the on status of the HD these are always on, if it is a low voltage LED. the other LEDs like blue, violet, black, ... (attention may need a resistance, so they don't burn) they already consume more, not to mention the strips of leds (minimum goes from 12v to 14v)). A small DRL Ruler Bolb Blue or Ice Blue from aliexpress already consumes 12 to 14v, as an example you can connect the (+) to the switch. o (-) directly to the power connector (molex). From Molex o (+) to the other pin on the switch. When it changes its state from open to closed, the energy passes to the LED strip or to the light bulb Bolb

I must be NERD but I can't find anything about the video. The video presents a desktop Moding, looking over the Power buttom's custom. It teaches you how to make the hole and how to take care, but says nothing more. For example, buttom with LED ??? volt, Momentary or Lacting (lock). Which pin buttons to connect. how many cables go from button to button varies is certain (3 or 4). But pins connect on buttom were they will be connected on Moterboard (common desktop Momentary button is only 2 cables) but this use 3 - were be connected ???). Sorry, presentation style its not ... . if anyone knows, please share. Grateful
TKs I will use on woodworks. Yes it is nice but it does not mention or explain anything about the connections of these buttons from car to desktop
It's "latching", not "lacking" power switch :)
where the fuck do i plug it in
first
First!
