I'm working inside the Lian Li 207 with an X670 Aorus Elite AX. The F Panel cable in the case doesn't match the motherboard pins, so it won’t power on. I’m sure the motherboard and case are compatible, but the front panel cable isn’t fitting the power connector correctly. (In the pictures, the cable shows 4 on the bottom, 5 on top, while the motherboard has 3 on the bottom and 4 on the top. Can you help me?)

The front panel connectors are typically on the left side, with the ones already attached shifting to the right. That’s what I believe, but I’m not sure.

They are connected to the left side, where the power switch is located. However, it isn’t activating. I’m sure the power source is correctly attached and the computer is linked, so there should be some functionality.

I just tested it and I’m pretty sure I didn’t connect it correctly, but I’m not sure the right way to plug in just those.

I wasn't referring only to those two parts. My goal was to position the connector correctly so those ends connect to the Power switch pins on the header. If that's not feasible because of the restricted space in the 4-hole row, you'll likely need a male-to-female Dupont cable as an adapter. Alternatively, for a quick test, try using a flathead screwdriver (or any conductive tool) to briefly connect the two power pins on the motherboard and see if the PC powers up without the case's power button.

According to the manual, it appears to be a front USB connector with identical pin configuration.
