Alienware Area 51 R2 Case upgrade help

I am in the process of upgrading my beloved R2 Case.

I plan to put a 

I9 14900k

Asus Tuf z790 plus ATX

Master Cooler MWE Gold 850W Psu

Now I am aware that the cables for the front IO might not work? I don't mind losing the RGB but I kinda need the power button working, and maybe the dvd drive.

Could I get any advice on how to get it all working

I replied on the Redditware forum. A51 R2-R7 all came brand new using a standard ATX power supply + standard PSU cables. The AlienFX FIO board accepts a standard Molex 4pin peripheral cable, so just buy a retail type of good brand name & sufficient wattage. I also responded there w/ tips on AWCC CmndCntr 4.0 software install
