I was wondering if Dell motherboards were unique somehow and would not be compatible with typical setups.
I've read about Dell boards having a different power plug pin, but I'm not sure if they still do that now.
Thanks.

They are unique,
You can use them if you rewire the power supply and all the switches and LED's but it's tedious at best.

Ah, better to go with a different board, then, I guess. :)
