Area 51 R2 Extra 9-pin USB 2.0 header?
Hi,
I'm looking to upgrade to a Corsair AIO. Does the Area 51 R2 motherboard have an unused 9-pin USB 2.0 header available? It's for their Corsair Link software to control the AIO.
Thanks!!!

the XJKKD (Hotwell) & FRTKJ (Broadwell) mthrbrds have one USB2.0 header, so u have to try a usb expander hub, example NZXT IU01 or NZXT AC-IUSBH-M1(see eBAY) or similar, in order to run multiple usb devices off of one header. A Molex splitter (eBAY) can be used if needed to patch in extra 4pin power devices (AC-IUSBH-M1 appears to need one, IU01 doesn't)
