Reviewing the cheat sheet for the ASUS Prime X570-Pro reveals it mentions 4 USB2.0 ports, but the board only displays two headers at the bottom. It seems there might be a discrepancy between the documentation and the physical layout. Checking the manual you received also supports this inconsistency.

Oh I see. Would something like this work then? I need the extra headers so. https://www.amazon.com/Header-Extension-...210&sr=8-3

I’d examine several reviews carefully before deciding. This product seems limited in its usefulness. It appears designed mainly for simple header expansion, but with just one rail it reduces the header size and turns one side into a standard port. It doesn’t seem suitable for complex setups like PC cases or multi-port controllers. The design restricts functionality—especially with data ports used by cooling units or USB controllers (tested with Corsair and Thermaltake). Only two ports are recommended; more than that may cause issues. A four-port version could add one extra port, but it’s not ideal for general use. For specific needs like splitting USB ports or adding headers, other solutions might be better. I wouldn’t suggest this for anything beyond basic power connections.

My board supports two USB 2.0 ports, and I'm using both for controller hubs—fans and RGB lights. To enable Bluetooth on my system, I need an extra USB 2.0 port. I recently purchased a PCIe Wi-Fi card that includes Bluetooth (link provided). It must be connected to a USB 2.0 header for it to work, but I don’t have any spare headers left.

Available in the US: https://nzxt.com/product/internal-usb-hub-gen-3 The true answer lies in organizing your fan configuration—managing several RGB setups on a single PC can feel overwhelming, similar to what Linus achieved with Kristofer Yee and the Toasty Bros.
