So I'm upgrading my ancient mobo to an Asus B450M-A which only has USB 3.1 headers. My old motherboard only had usb 2.0 headers and I'm struggling to find cables that go from USB 3.1 to 2.0. I can't use PCIe expansion cards because the mobo is micro ATX and only has 1 slot. Does anyone know where I can find these cables or another way around it? I don't want to replace all the USB ports I have but it looks like I might have to. Thanks in advance, Maddix

I confirmed the board details—it includes two USB 2.0 headers at the bottom.
