x470 Taichi front panel 3.1 header vs graphic card

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Amazon just delivered me my new motherboard and case so I get to building my PC. I've got Fractal Design R6 as a case, Asrock x470 Taichi as a motherboard and from my old PC, MSI 1080Ti graphic card. Now the problem I'm facing is placement of 3.1 front panel header on the motherboard. I just went with stock cables the case comes with. As you can see in the attached picture, cable from front panel 3.1 USB preventing me from installing my graphic card in its stock shape. What you suggest me to do in that situation?

	Have you tried/looked into a 90 degree adapter or something similar? I think ASRock gave out right angle USB 3.1 GEN 2 adapters with their x570 Taichi motherboards ..
