USB 3.0 Up Angled Adapter on Asus Crosshair 7 Hero

My USB 3.0 slot is at the bottom of the board.
When installing the cable for the front panel on my NZXT H440,
the cable lays over the SSD. I looked for awhile online and finally found an
adapter that would make the cable come up from the bottom
instead of the laying over the top of the SSD of the PSU Shroud.
Picked up the adapter on amazon for about 6 bucks. it was cheaper on the BAY,
but would had to have waited a month to get it from China.
Tested and its working great.
Although a totally cosmetic addition, it looks a TON better.
I will be adding a USB 3.1 Type C cable connector to the top panel soon.
Waiting on my custom 8 pin extensions for the GPU, so I can get rid of the bulky
PSU cables.

That is a good find. I normally get internal flat header / extension cables when I come into situations like that. Nice to know about the angled adapter. Thanks for sharing.

Here's what I normally grab. Only $9 at NewEgg . I usually order one when I order a new chassis.
