Hello,

While trying to connect the internal USB 3 port to my motherboard, I broke a pin (I was being careful...)

I'm talking about this:

I would like to know how I could solve this issue because I need to be able to use my 2 USB 3 ports on the front!

I have bought an adapter to USB 2 for now, but going from 100MB/s in USB 3 to 37 in USB 2...

If anyone has a solution, no matter what, I'm all ears! Thanks for reading.

    Hello,

    Either you get your motherboard repaired or you buy a daughterboard that has USB 3.

    Not bad the card fil but 36 euros :o isn't there another alternative?

    I could maybe change the IDC connector by soldering but I need a tutorial ><.

    I wanted to give you the same kind of girl card, but since you wanted the USB 3 ports on the front, I put the other one for you.
