Internal USB connectors for ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z model
Internal USB connectors for ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z model
I've checked the ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z motherboard and noticed a problem with the USB connectors. The manual claims two 20-pin USB 3.0 ports but only one is present. There are also four USB 2.0 ports listed, but only two are available. A TB header functions as a USB connector, yet it's noted separately. I contacted ASUS Technical Support, but their response didn’t clarify the issue. Additionally, there are unlabeled four-pin connectors missing from the manual. It seems the board itself looks intact, so the documentation might be incorrect. No visible damage was found, but I’m curious if others have experienced this. Thanks, David.
The instructions specify a 1x20 pin configuration. The 20 pin corresponds to the labeled 12, while the 19 pins are the dual 2.0/1.1 connectors. They utilize the connector on the right side. Each of those nine pins can accommodate up to two internal USB devices.
1x 3.0 header size equals 2, 3.0 USB connections = 2, 2.0 headers correspond to 4, 2.0 USB ports
