   In that same photo, there is also an unmarked header just to the right of the chipset heatsink. What is that one used for?

	Dear Mr.DNA, Thank you for choosing ASRock. Regarding your question, this white 8-pin header is for factory debug. Please feel free to use your system. Thank you! Yours truly, ASRock TSD

	Just received this board and I notice it has an extra header not mentioned anywhere in the manual. This is my first build in a few years, so maybe it is something I should just obviously recognize, but I do not. It is a white 8-pin header next to what is labeled the "chassis intrusion header." It is clearly visible as the only white header in the bottom right corner on this picture: https://www.asrock.com/mb/photo/Fatal1ty%20Z370%20Gaming-ITXac(L2).png
