I just build a pc with an Asus x99 Deluxe II motherboard. (https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/X99-DELUXE-II/)
The motherboard only has 1 USB 2.0 header on the board, the rest are USB 3.0. My problem is, my CPU cooler (Corsair H115i) and another piece of hardware require a USB 2.0 header to plug into for monitoring and controlling purposes. Is there anyway to get access to more USB 2.0 headers? I know this may seem like a silly question, but I figured I would ask anyway, as I would really like to plug in and take advantage of all of my hardware. I need 3 total, as one USB 2.0 header is for the computer case itself. Thanks.

I actually need them to be internal USB 2.0 headers (the 9pin slot). That way I can plug in the CPU cooler, Case USB slots & PSU. Plugging in the PSU & CPU Cooler would help me monitor and change settings to increase performance. Is there such thing as an addon card that adds internal USB headers?

THANK YOU SO MUCH SUZTERA! That is exactly what I am looking for! I ordered one of each, never know when you're going to need them! Calvin 7, I see those specs on their website and everything, but the other usb2.0 connecter on the motherboard and manual is mysteriously missing. I would love to see why this is listed and not actually on the motherboard. Thank you all for your answers!
