Title: Motherboard with power button on the board Post by: JayC on May 20, 2011, 02:49:08 AM I'm looking for an inexpensive 2 PCI-E 16x board with the power button on the motherboard... Anybody have any suggestions... (It's not something you can easily search newegg or amazon for)
Thanks for any help. Title: Re: Motherboard with power button on the board Post by: benjamindees on May 20, 2011, 03:10:26 AM Just wire a momentary pushbutton to a jumper.

I'm trying to see if the motherboards with the switch/LEDs already on it, are cost effective... vs buying a switch per PC ~$10.

I'm aware of how to 'jump' start a computer with a paperclip... But, I'm interested in seeing if anybody knows of a good model of motherboard with a power button on the board :) Title: Re: Motherboard with power button on the board Post by: MysteryMiner on May 20, 2011, 11:59:04 AM DFI boards have them, and high-end ASUS. There are few select models of MSI also. You probably just want to buy Gigabyte motherboard with fout PCI-E slots, this is more cost efective.
