How many ports do you see that I can connect this to?
is it just the one??
it says it needs to be plugged into a usb 2.0

the wire that’s plugged into the one I saw doesn’t have much slack…

thanks guys

also, say I don’t plug it into the motherboard…does that just mean whatever is plugged into it won’t work?

This is from the website you linked to.

The hub will connect to the motherboard USB2 conector.

That’s good cable management.

The mainboard manual will confirm if this hub should be connected to socket 14 or 15 in your picture.

Ok…so now let’s say I have this Amazon.com: NZXT Hue+ Advanced PC Lighting - Black (AC-HUEPS-M1) : Tools & Home Improvement

If I don’t connect it to the motherboard, will it still light up when supplied with power?? Will the lack of usb just make it so I can’t change the colors and stuff??

thank you btw

Any update?

Yeah, I got it hooked up to the correct port after giving up on shortcuts. Rearranged the hub to fit securely in my case, and everything is up and running! Really appreciate the follow up. Gus, I wasn’t trying to be disrespectful with my other response, I was genuinely confused with what you were trying to tell me without actually saying it.

Thanks for the update. I’ll mark your thread as solved.
