So I'm upgrading a family friend's computer on the budget.

I got spare parts sitting around to make a decent AM3 build for them.

I would like to reuse the case however the lame front panel and USB headers are one of those "all-in-one" header which I need to separate. Lucky the wires are still properly color coded.

Anyone know where I can buy those USB headers and single/double pin headers?

performance-pcs.com is where I used to buy mine (wow their selection has diminished or I'm thinking of another site, lol). also, there was a cheap china-based site, but i haven't ordered from them in years, so i can't remember the name (edit: found it, http://www.frontx.com/order_c.html). oh, and of course, digikey always has this kinda stuff.

anyhow, which one's do you need? I may have a few layin around I can send you. PM me.
