Hi. Yesterday I received my new PC with a Z170-E Mother board and on description it says it has.

1x USB3.1
6x USB3.0
6x USB2.0

How ever I only see 2x 3.0 on the back and 2X 3.0 on top of the case. I also have 2x USB2.0 on the rear.

All I can see is 4X 3.0USB and 2 of those are on the case it self and 2X 2.0USB. Also I do have a x1 usb 3.1

Am I reading the description wrong or looking in a wrong place or are the others hidden?.?. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...cket-1151-ddr4-atx-motherboard-mb-675-as.html

Thanks for any help.

So yeah,

Two at the rear, and four via internal USB headers for the front of the case.

One of these is next to the 24pin connector, the other is along the bottom edge of the PCB.
