I am building a PC with the Z6901 Aorus and also the Kraken X63 AIO. the Motherboard manual shows that the USB 2 header should have 9 pins with 1 pin missing. However the actual motherboard has all 10 pins. And this prevents me from connecting my Kraken USB 2 connector.

Either I'm missing something or the motherboard has an extra pin where its not supposed to be?

I will upload pics of the manual as well as both connectors that I think are supposed to go together.IMG_4571.jpegIMG_4575.jpegIMG_4572.jpeg

Figured out the answer. But will leave this up. Apparently there's a proprietary splitter cable they include in the box that you have to use. But it isn't specified in the manual.
