My coolermaster centurion 5 doesn't show what wires or + or - (specifically the power, reset, hdd led)

They all have a triangle and G on the end of the wire but i dont know if i should assume the G is -. The manual doesnt say anything on theses cables.

Also there's a cable (not labeled) but I think it's the power led cable, where should this be connected to the motherboard at? I have msg, gd, and gn slots left...
 
There's a little block of pins on the motherboard that serves for all front panel connectors. As for +/-, just stick them in one way, and if it doesn't work, try the other.
 
For switches it doesn't matter which way they're plugged in, but LEDs will only work one way. Typically the coloured wire is the + and the black wire is the -, but you won't damage anything if you get it wrong, you'll just need to switch it around before the LED will work.

yea word up on that. I had a similar problem...*checks the side of his sexy-ass cm690*...and it looks like i still do. i enevr had time to fiddle with the cable management and stuff.. yea but on my other cases i worked on, i had a problem which i fixed so its cool. rememebr, typically the colored wire is the + and the white or black wire is the -.
