USB and front panel headers getting squished!

[ibpalle]

Hi all

After adding 3 gfx cards to my setup I noticed that the bottom USB headers and the front panel connectors are being squashed by the bottom gfx card - I was wondering if anyone knew of half height USB mb plug that could be used. The standard plugs are a little over a cm high - should be possible to have them be .8

Just find a 2.54mm pitch connector. I have not however, ever seen any of the same but half height. You might have to look at a different type of plug. In which case, you may be able to use a IDC ribbon connector. Assuming that there is no shroud around the plugs so it will fit.

Ribbon - good idea. Ty
