Hello,
I am having a bit of a crisis regarding my usb header pins on my Asrock Extreme4 z77 motherboard. Upon placing the header cable back into the motherboard I noticed that 3 of the pins had been bent at a 90 degree angle into the board. I attempted to bend one back but ended up snapping it off and I am afraid that the same thing will happen to the other two pins. I would like to keep the front USB 3.0 headers and I was wondering if there was an option that would let me do this. I have seen USB 2.0 convertors and this looks like a plausible option but would I be able to keep the USB 3.0 speeds or would it switch down?
Thanks
