Nemesis Elite: Connecting the wires of the LCD display [Archive]

What kind of case do you own?

If it is a NemesisElite, it is not so hard to connecting as it seems ;-) ...
You have to imagine that you?ll have three sensors, and a display for three fans in the LCD.

This LCD is having:
- One power-cord for the electronic function and backlight
- Three cables, one to each temperature sensor
- Three cables that went to each fan (one in the front of your case, one in the back and one to the fan that is placed onto your headsink of the CPU).
-Also three cables that must be connect with your mobo (motherboard) fan-connectors to becoming power for the fans and submitting the rotation-signal back from the fans across the LCD (for displaying the function there) to the mobo for controlling the fans in function (and speed).
What means, you have ten cables in all for the LCD.

Sensors:
I have fixed the sensor "CPU" between two fins of the headsink of my CPU. Cause the place between the fins was to less to put in the sensor includes the transparent plastic-cover, I had widen it with a small screwdriver only a little. Doessn?t matter really if you will do it carefully. Or take a piece of thin and blank wire instead and bind the sensor onto the side of your headsink. That?s the same in result. The sensor "HDD" I have fixed with a adhesive tape on the metal cover of my most used Harddisk (where my OS is running on). Last the sensor "SYS" I fixed between the fins of the cooler from my graphic-card. There was place enough between the fins of it.
Where you fix your sensors exactly at last is not so important if you fix them where prospective the most heat is coming to existence.
Important: Do never become the idea to put the CPU fan directly between the CPU and its headsink - sure, it would be the ideal place for, but the sensor will gona be destroyed under the pressure while fixing the headsink
on the CPU.
THERE MAY NOTHING BEING BETWEEN CPU AND HEADSINK BUT SILVERPASTE! Otherwise you will loosing your ideal thermal area loading and the CPU may going overheating.

Fan-Connectors:
the cables that owns the lettering "Fan Sys", "Fan CPU" and "Fan HDD", are having small plastic-coves for saving the pins while shipping. First they are looking like three-pin female-plugs, but they are not as they are looking. This plastic-covers you have to plug away before connecting. You will find three-pin male-plugs inside then. "Fan HDD" should be connected with the cable from the front-fan whitch is build in the case near the HDD-Bay. "Fan SYS" fits to the cable of the backward case-fan and "Fan CPU" you should connect with the Cable from the CPU-Fan.

Mobo-Connectors:
The three cables "CPU", "SYS" and "HDD" are having three-pin female-plugs. That cables you have to connect with your motherboard-fan-connectors what are three-pins male-connectors. Where the connectors for the fans are placed on your mobo, you have to read in your Asus-user-guide of the P4C800. The "CPU"-plug you have to plug into the "CPU-fan"-Connector on your mobo, the "HDD"-plug fits into the "Cha-fan1" -connector of your mobo and last the "Sys"-plug you have to connect with the "Cha-fan2"-connector of your mobo.

If this all is done, you only have to connect the power-plug with your PS(powersupply) and all should be fine.

Hope my little tutorial would be helpful

Oh, I?m stupid - forget my declaration about the part "mobo-connectors" and cables what are going to, please!
In Nemesis Elite two of this three cables are not existing. I have another case that is connected as I wrote in my description. In this I was confused and have confounded the cases.

Once again:
- Nemesis Elite is having three sensors, named "CPU", "SYS" and "HDD", you should place them as described in my first posting.

- The three fan-connection-cables, named "CPU", "SYS" and "HDD" from the LCD to each fan are connected with the case-fans and the CPU-fan as described before also.

- In Elite only one rotation-signal-cable is coming from the LCD to the mobo. Connect it with the "CPU-Fan"-connector on your mobo.
"Cha-Fan1" and "Cha-Fan2"-connectors on your mobo will stay unused empty.

- With the Elite one more wire for displaying HDD-working in the LCD is existing. This cable ends in a Y with two two-pin plugs (one male, one female). You have to plug the female-plug into your panel1-connector of your Asus where usualy the HDD-LED is pluged in (with Asus mostly the left two pins in the bottom row). Have a look in the User-Guide if so. The male-plug from this Y, you have to connect with your "Nemesis"-Sign-LED-cable named HDD coming from the frontdoor.

Hope to be correct now ;-)

Hey there, just got my Nemesis Elite case yesterday, and I can't, for the life of me, figure out where to put the firewire, USB, and audio cable motherboard connectors. I have included a link to a diagram of my motherboard. The HDD LED, reset button and power button connectors pretty much already take up all of the pins in the JFP1 layout. As much as I hate still having an HP motherboard, I can't get a new one right now, so if there is anyone out there who can help me figure out where to put these please let me know.

Thanks in advance, the link is below:

Hi, with this "special" mobo, you won?t have any chance to connect the firewire-cable and audio-cables. This board have no firewire and no other audio than in the backpanel. The USB-cable of your Elite you may connect to the JUSB1-Connector that is 5cm left from the JFP1-Connector. May be, you have to enable the USB45 in the bios for working.

How about the cables on the back of the lcd panel? I disconected them so I could relocate the screen, but I forgot the order they go back in. 2 are self explanatory, but 3 or so (havent looked at it in a while) are the exact same cables with different name tags. Which order do they go in?

Also, is there a way to turn on the lcd without having everything hooked up? Because I have plans to put red celophane over the screen to make it red, but I want to know how it looks before I install it, so I know it looks alright. ^Awesome run-on.

Hey Whats Up I need a lot of help connecting my case and I would appreciate it!! Well Lets start of with top I read your thing about the cabled Labeled SYS, CPU, and HDD I only have a cable labled SYS, and CPU So I am going to make the assumption that the other cable is HDD So is the back fan the SYS and The Front fan the HDD ??? And after the are all plugged in which slot do I plug the the cable into the choices I have is CHA1_FAN, CHA2_FAN, PWR_FAN, and CPU_FAN. Okay Thats That there still are Three Cream colored cables One which says 1394 on the black peice the other on is not labled and there is one other piece that is not labeled but has like 7 single wire coming out of it!!! Please I Need Help ASAP!!! I have a link of my motherboard Here

TsunamiCat,
Hi, the upper USB- Audio- Firewire-box will owns two identical cables. One is USB, the other is for Firewire (see below). The manual says: Don't swap this cables because the mainboard may be destroyed because of this. But as it seems you have choosen the right one to connecting the Upper-USB-Connector. May be a shortcut somwhere in the Upper-USB-Connector

Most users of the Elite are connecting the Back-Fan to the SYS-Fan cable and the Front-Fan to the HDD-Fan cable as well as the CPU-Fan to the CPU-Fan cable. But this is free for you.

Best to fix the temp sensors SYS and HDD between the fins of the headsink of the graphiccard-CPU(Sys), on the harddisk-metal-surface(HDD), and between the fins of the headsink of the CPU(CPU).

Usualy connections on Mobos:
Cha1-Fan = Front-Fan
Cha2-Fan = Back-Fan
PWR-Fan = Power-Supply-Fan-signal-wire (if the PSU supports some)
CPU-Fan = CPU-Fan

The 1394-labled cable, I guess, will be the Upper Firewire-Connector,
The unlabled cable with seven single pins is coming from the Upper Audio-Connector. On the black plastic of the pins each function is labled.
Check your mainboard-manual to find out how to connect them.

If you can't figure out how to, or having other problems, drop a posting again ;-)

TsunamiKat

05-09-2006, 02:45 AM

Still Very Very Confused!!

1.) First I have connected the SYS Fan, HDD Fan, and CPU Fan to there Respective cables coming out of the case top.

First Question: There is one Connector that I have to connect back into one of the motherboard fan connectors which slot do I plug it into CPU_FAN,CHA1_FAN,CHA_FAN2, or PWR_FAN??

Second Question: I am getting ready to plug in the Power SW with one black wire and one white which is ground?

Third Question: I am getting ready to plug in the Reset SW with one blue wire and one black which is ground?

Fourth Question: I am getting ready to plug in the HDD LED with one red wire and one white one which is ground?

Delirium

05-09-2006, 03:07 AM

Ok, let's see ;-)
1. If the one unidentified Plug is the female ending of an Y-cable and on the other male cable of the Y you have connected your CPU-Fan than I understand, what cable you speak about.
This cable you have to plug into the CPU-Fan-Connector. This cable forwards the rotating signal from the CPU-Fan across the LCD-Panel to the Mobo, so the Fan-controller of the mobo knows there is a Fan connected. Much Mobos won't start, if there is no CPU-Fan connected.

2. In the Elite case the white wires are ground. But it isn't important because all frontdoor switches are potential-free.

3. I have taken black as ground - but it is also unimportant (see 2.)

4. Try to test red as ground. With my Elite the red wire of the HDD-LED is ground. First Nemesis-Logo I had destroyed because of connecting white as ground like other switches;-)
If your HDD-Led won't light up when booting, rotate the Plug and try white as ground. But I'm nearly sure, red is ground.

Good luck

By the way, don't forget to connect the 4-Pin Molex Plug with your power-supply-unit for getting 12V for the LCD-Panel and the three Fans.

If I remember correct, there is one more cable you have to connect - a two wire red/white with an Y-ending. This cable is for the HDD-working symbol in the LCD-Panel that works simular with the HDD-Nemesis-Logo-LED. Connect the female into the HDD-connector on your mainboard and the male you have to connect with your Nemesis-Logo-Led (White is Ground)
So the HDD-working-signal went from the mobo to the LCD-Panel and also to the Nemesis-Logo.

How do I test the reset and power and hdd led wires to figure out which is ground I don't want to fry my mother board???????

I need help figuring out the audio cables and firewall. I need your help delirum! This url shows the mother board and I figured out the 1324 cable is USB This is the last thing I need before I can power on my cpu.

Hi,
with the power-button as well as the reset-button it doessn't care how to plug them onto the mobo-connectors ;-)
- Standard in computers is: noncolored wires like white and black are every time ground, colorful wires like red, blue, brown, yellow and so on are signalwires. -
But as I told, with the power- and resetbuttons it's irrelevant how you plug them in, cause they work only as switches (potentialfree). Every switch you can plug however you like to. It will work in both variants well.

The HDD-Led-Plug (female) coming from the LCD-Panel you have to plug in the Momo-HDD-LED-Connector with white as ground. In the male plug of this cable you have to plug in the Nemesis-HDD-LED with it's red wire (female) to the white wire coming from the LCD-Panel(male), cause the NEMESIS-sign-LED is wrong polarized.

A8N-SLI:
System panel connector:
Powerswitch: bottom row, pin 6 and 7 (from left to right) horizontal -Standard: black to 7
Resetswitch: bottom row, pin 9 and 10 (from left to right) horizontal
-Standard: white to 10
LCD-Panel-HDD-Signal (female): bottom row, pin 1 and 2 (from left to right) horizontal - Red to 1, white to 2
LCD-Panel-HDD-Signal (male) to NEMESIS-sign-LED: red (male) to white (female), white (male) to red(female)

For connecting the Top-firewire-connector into your A8N-SLI you have to renounce to connect your PCI-Slot Firewire-Adapter that comes with your mobo. Since the A8N-SLI only has only one intern firewire-connector 1394a you have to adjudicate if you want to use the backward-Asus-PCI-Firewire-Connector or the Elite Firewire on top of the case. (see manual 2-27). I like to suggesting for using the Elite firewire connector cause it's easier to connect a device-cable in front of a case instead in the back of it ;-)

For using the Elite USB-Connector you should having some free USB-Ports on your A8N-SLI (three internal USB-ports, each for 2 USB-Connectors - USB56, USB78, USB910). The Asus-PCI-Slot USB-Connector (that one with the included Game-Connector) you should plug into the USB56-Connector (see manual 2-24) the USB78 you may using for plug in the Elite-USB-Connector.
Dont forget to enable this USB-Connectors in the BIOS, if you start the System first time. In default the USB78 and USB910 is disabled there.

But please follow the Exclamation mark in bottom of the manual page 2-24 and 2-27...
NEVER CONNECT A IEEE 1394 (FIREWIRE) CABLE TO THE USB-CONNECTORS. DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE MAINBOARD.
NEVER CONNECT A USB CABLE TO THE IEEE 1394 (FIREWIRE) CONNECTORS. DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE MAINBOARD.

No problems with connecting the 7wires of the Elite-Front Audio-Connector?
See manual Page 2-28 for connecting.

Hope, it will help ;-)
If you gonna more questions feel free to drop a posting again ;-)

I see, you need a little help for connecting Audio also.
For doing so, please post me the lables on the seven Wires here.

If you gimme the different lables, I'll try to help you to connect the wires with your A8N-SLI ;-)

05-11-2006, 01:28 AM

Correction (but it's unnessesary, only for correctness in standard):
Powerswitch: bottom row, pin 6 and 7 (from left to right) horizontal -Standard: black to 6, white to 7
Resetswitch: bottom row, pin 9 and 10 (from left to right) horizontal
-Standard: blue to 9, black to 10

05-11-2006, 01:39 AM

By the way, don't wonder...
the PowerLED-Connector at the System panel connector (upper row, Pin 1 and 3 from left to right horizontal) stays empty, cause the ELITE-case use the 12V from the power-supply-unit (PSU) to power the Nemesis-Eye (the colour-changing crystal "V" below the front-door) for showing Power-On instead of a simple 1.2V-LED like "normal" cases will using for.

The Labels on the Motherboard is BLINE_OUT_L, LINE OUT_L, NC, BLINE_OUT_R, LINE OUT_R, +5VA, MICPWR, AGND, MIC2

The Labels on the Connectors is R-OUT, R-RET, L-OUT, L-RET, MIC-POWER, MIC-IN, GROUND

Which goes where?

Delirium

05-11-2006, 02:10 PM

With the ASUS-Front-Audio-Connector, you will need not each of the nine given Pins. On FP_Audio the Pin NC (2nd row, right) stays unused (means Not Connected). The Pin +5V (4th row, left) is the Power for the original ASUS-Front-Panel (optional, not included with your mobo), you don't need 5V in the Elite-Front-Panel. So this pin stays unused also.

The others connect as follows:
Top-Cable GND with FP_Audio AGND (bottom row, left)
Top-Cable MIC with FP_Audio MIC2 (bottom row, right)
Top-Cable MIC-Power with FP_Audio MICPWR (4th row, right)
Top-Cable L-OUT with FP_Audio Line_out_L (top row, right)
Top-Cable R-OUT with FP_Audio Line_out_R (3rd row, right)
Top-Cable L-RET with FP_Audio BLine_out_L (top row, left)
Top-Cable R-RET with FP_Audio BLine_out_R (3rd row, left)

Thats it, have fun with your Elite ;-)

Hope you havn't to much problems with my bad english - I'm a german and schooltime is more than 20 Years ago :)

There are seven wires coming out but can i just plug the connector on to it or do i need to plug each individual wire in???

Delirium

05-12-2006, 12:58 AM

Now I didn't understand really what you're saying.
With your "..can I just plug the connector..." you mean the Mobo connector?

The seven wires are ending in seven plugs, isn't ist?

Each of this plugs you have to connect with the correspondenting Pin (as I wrote before) of the Mobo-Audio-Connector.

For example:
Connect the Front-Audio-wire with it's plug labled as "GND" into the Pin "AGND" of the MoBo-Connector (it's the right pin in the bottom row)
Connect the Front-Audio-wire with it's plug labled as "MIC" into the Pin "MIC2" of the MoBo-Connector (it's the left pin in the bottom row)
and so on... like I wrote before.
(compare with manual page 2-28 with the Mobo-Audio-Connector)

Gimme a mess, if ya gonna still problems ;-)

I was wondering with my mobo can I boot it up with serial ATA hard drive becasue that is all I have. Or Do I need to buy another hard drive???

Delirium

05-12-2006, 02:22 AM

No, that's no problem to boot from a SATA, but you have to configure your BIOS for booting from SATA.
Will your Posttest (that stuff what is shown when System starts - after Ram-Check) detecting and showing the SATA-Drive?
To boot from a SATA, first you have to configure in your Bios (see manual Page 4-11) the SATA-Drive as first Bootdevice (see manual page 4-6).
In Boot Priority you have to select Hard disk as 1st Boot Device.
In Hard disk drives you must select your SATA.

Delirium

05-16-2006, 01:14 AM

Hi TsunamiCat,
I forgot a little thing - to install an OS like WinXP or Linux or whatever from CD, you have to set your 1st Boot Device in BIOS as CD-ROM, and 2nd Boot Device as your Harddisk, so the InstallCD may be started.
After installing an OS it is better to set the Boot Priority back to 1st Boot Device Harddisk, cause some selfmade CD's may contains boot-viruses. If ya forget such one in your drive and starting the computer, your system may infected then.

Delirium

06-02-2006, 11:14 PM

Hi Pain,
nice Pic ;-)
well, let's see... my LCD-Panel looks like an other build, but the colors and wires should match.

There are four kinds of wires:
1. Fan-Wires (yellow/red/black), two ends in an molex-male-plug, one ends in an Y with an molex-male-plug and an molex-female-plug
2. Temp-Sensors (white/green), ends in temp-sensors
3. HDD-Control (white/red), ends in an y with an 2pin male plug and an 2pin female plug
4. Power-Supply (red/black/black/yellow) ends in an 5 1/4"-Unit Plug

Fan-Wires
The wires with yellow/red/black went to the fans. The one that ends in an y-ending is for connecting the CPU-Fan at one plug and the CPU-Fan-Connector of the mobo at the other plug to forward the Fan-rotation-signal to the mobo.
One of the other yellow/red/black wires you have to connect with your Front-Fan, the other should be connected with the Backward-Chassis-Fan.

The three white/green wires are the thermal sensors. On my panel the left is the CPU-Sensor, the middle is the HDD-sensor and the right one is the SYS-Sensor. But it mustn't be same with your panel-layout.

The white/red-Wire is the HDD-Led connector that ends in a Y. the female-plug of this you have to connect with your mobo-HDD-LED-Connector, the male-plug you must connect with the Nemesis-Sign-HDD-Control-LED. Its wire is coming from the Front-door in an white/red-Wire. Most users have to connect the male-plug from the LCDpanel with the Nemesis-LED in changing the polarity to become the Nemesis-LED working. What means connect the white with red and the red with the white wires. If the Nemesis-LED wont work, swap the Plug and try again.

The red/black/black/yellow wire will be the connector that you have to connect with an plug of your Powersupply for getting Power to the panel.

That should be all ;-)

Hope it will help, if not, feel free to ask again

hello all
I just bought the nemisis elite case and i am a bit confused about fan controllers. I have 3 cables one says CPU (it has 2 outlets, one male and one female.. this one was successfully installed) and the other two say sys and hdd.. they are either male or female not both.. i am getting confused as to how to attach them on the motherboard and the fan together... (i understand that there are caps on these connectors to protect the pins during shipping) ..

also why is it that the date and time always reset when i restart my computer? is this happening to everyone or is it just me?

also is there a way to switch of thel ights in the case? someone suggested that i get rid of the 2 pin power connectors.. i dont know where to find them.. any help will be appreciated.. thanks in advance

Ok so, what you need to do is.

First off, place your sensors where you want them (green wires) I reccomend one on your CPU HS, one on the top of your hdd and the last one somewhere on or near your gfx card, even your chipset would be ok. Place them accordingly to the labels on the sensors.

Second is to connect the fan controllers.

Connect the HDD one to the front fan that blows air onto the HDD.

Connect the system one to the Rear fan.

Connect the CPU one to your CPU HS fan and your mobo.

Note that on the fan controller wires coming from the LCD display they have a thingy over the 3 wires to stop them being damaged, you need to take these off first.

Lets connect your HDD activity now, this is simple, all you need to do is take off another thingy that protects the wires again, the HDD activity wire is the red and white one. All you have to do is plug one half of it into the HDD wire coming from your front panel, the other half goes into your mobo.

Now your USB 2.0, this is simple, just find the correct spot at the bottom of your mobo and plug it in.

I cannot help with the Firewire and headphone and jack, as my mobo does not support them.

If you need more detail I can give you more.

Good luck.

PS! Plug in the molex connector!

Yeah, I am here. I know it should be plug and play, but for some odd reason it isnt working. What do you think could be the problem.

sry, thought you meant "dood" in general. No, my molex is connected. Is there something in particular it should be connected to? p1, CD drive, HDD, etc? I just noticed that my USB is connected properly and it won't function either. I know it isn't the mobo because my old USB port that hooks into the same spot works when I plug it in instead. Do you think that the LCD unit could be faulty in mine?

This might be a dumb question that I might know the answer to, just looking for some expert advice. :) Is the nemesis logo on the front supposed to blink. I'm assuming since it's for the HDD that it is. Not sure though. Thanks!

Yes, it is an activity light.

Hi,
I have the A8N32-SLI-Deluxe, and two Geforce 7950 GX2's in SLi(enabled).
My question is this; where would be the best place (either card?) to place the sensor (SYS) pin on the GPU? HDD, and CPU appear to be fine- would be keen to get the SYS sensor tied down so it is not floating around uselessly.
I hate to seem greedy, and it looks like this thread is Delirium's second job, but any help would be appreciated.

Cheers in advance,
Aerozol
You can just use tape to stick the sensor to the Hard drive.

Stick the CPU sensor in the HSF.

As for Video cards, it really doesn't matter much, just stick it where you want to measure heat.

Thanks!
Might have been a few months, but it's good to know ;)

Haha, I am sorry about the long delay. The forums have been bumpy the last year or so and I am trying to get this place alive again.

Hello, I just got my nemesis elite case. I have figured out most of the wiring except for the 7 seperate speaker wires coming from the top of the case. L-out, r-out, etc. Since I am not using on board sound, where would they go? On the sound card? Here is my sound card:

Also the usb connector also from the lcd display. My board , here is a link:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131011

does not have the usb adapters on the board that are the same size as the connectors that come with the nemesis elite. The only ones my board has are for usb 2.0 connectors which came with the motherboard and plug into the back of the tower. Pictured in this link:

known as usb bracket and ieee bracket. I dont have anywhere else to plug them in. How can I do that?

Also there are 2 molex connectors coming from the top of the case for the lcd and 2 molex connectors from the fan on the removable side panel. Do i need to hook up all four of those connectors to power or only one of each?

Retell

I will look into the other questions, but I do know that all the molex connectors need to be hooked up :P I just put together my Zero an hour ago :D

It's very difficult to connect front-panel audio connectors to Creative sound cards. It requires special modding, and will cost you a couple of dollars and a few hours. It's not worth it, just run your cables to the back of your computer.

Any USB connector should be self explanatory in your motherboard manual. Perhaps you have the wrong end, and you pulled it from the front-panel itself? The correct end will look exactly the same as the connector on your USB bracket, except maybe with a different color plastic.

You should be connecting all MALE molex connections somehow to the PSU eventually, otherwise devices will not get power. Don't be afraid to daisychain fans, though, they don't take much wattage.

For some reason my usb ports don't work completely. I received new ones and hooked them up but still the same problem. My mouse and keyboard work, my digital camera, usb microphone and cellphone don't. The front mic jack works, just not the usb.... front or back. What could the problem be?

Sounds like your USB Microphone and Cellphone are at fault. If it's not those, you may be having motherboard troubles. Have you sought help on your motherboard's forums?

Not yet. Actually this is weird. The last time I posted and my cell mic or game controller wouldn't work, all of a sudden my controller did. Now all of a sudden the usb mic did, only in the back though. The controller will work on the front panel. So it's like the ports work when they want to it seems. Is that a mobo issue?

I figured it out ivybat. When I went into device manager there was something wrong with my usb drivers for some reason. I reinstalled them and now everything is fine.

I've built my computer a little less than 2 years ago using this case. I read everything in this thread but for the life of me, can only figure out where to plug in the 1394 cable, and even then i'm not even sure what it does. I've searched far and wide for a picture tutorial, but to no avail as I realize that all mobo's are too different sometimes. I need help basically connecting everything from the top of the case except for the 1394 cable.

This is the motherboard I am using:

Thanks for your time.

Edit: I actually plugged on what appeared to be the USB cable into one of the USB hubs on my mobo, now the thing I plugged into one of the top USB ports is blinking which means it's getting power, but it's not being recognized by my computer.
