A friend recently asked me to diagnose his PC (the PSU was faulty), but that's beside the point. I foolishly disconnected the front audio headers before checking the way they were connected, and now I can't wrap my head around how I should connect them. First time I am seeing those:

enter image description here

The labels on those headers are:

  • MIC IN x2
  • EAR L x2
  • GND x2 (ground)
  • EAR R x2

The header on the motherboard is an AAFP. Suppose I go with the legacy option. So do I connect:

  • MIC IN to MIC2?
  • EAR L to Line Out_L?
  • EAR R to Line Out_R?
  • GND to AGND?

If so, then what should I connect to MICPWR? I assume NC stands for No Connection? And what do I do with the remaining jumpers? (There are two of each!)

Excuse the poor image quality, but you're looking for something like this:

Note the etched image underneath the pins, which show what goes where. Plug the connectors onto the relevant pins, observing polarity.

For best results, consult the motherboard manual.

Edit - updated for your motherboard model
