Does anyone know what the connectors for the snappable header pins are called? I'm looking for some connectors like those that come with a case, the ones for the power switch, reset, hd led, etc that connect to the motherboard. I just can't find them and I'm not sure what they are called. Here's the pins I'm talking about. Thanks.
you mean pin headers? you mean like these at maplins? clickyclicky i always called them pin headers or motherboard headers, maplins always knew what i wanted (the little connectors for them are usually called motherboard jumpers).
http://futurlec.com/ConnHead.shtml you cant beat these for the price. scroll down and the wire-mount connectors for headers are there. $0.10 a piece compared to $0.23 a piece ($2.30 for the minimum order of 10) at jameco. also, shipping is flat $4. i use futurlec all the time, so far they have the lowest prices around for generic parts. edit: you need to buy pins for them too, at 60 cents for ten. still cheaper than jameco
