Motherboard connector
03-15-2021 01:21 AM

Good afternoon! I have an Asus P5LP-LE motherboard. It is located in the HP Pavillion A6000 system unit It has an internal HDMI_HEADER1...18 pin connector Question....what is this connector and what can I connect to it? The vastness of the Internet did not give any normal information on this connector…

Here is a picture and labeled layout for the motherboard

The picture is not quite clear enough to see the label etched on the motherboard, but I assume what you are questioning is to the right of the ATXPWR connector ( as shown on that picture ) there is a floppy connector and an IDE connector. The blue one in the picture is IDE - old school hard drive connection and the black one is for a floppy drive. Both are ribbon cable connections.

OK, I do see that now. IDK I do not think that chipset supports HDMI, so unknown.
That might be a HD audio header?? Perhaps someone else will chime in.
