Oh... Id RMA the case and try to return the motherboard.

so i broke my usb 3.0 header on my mother board and on my front panel hub i dont know for sure how this happened but think has to do with manufacturing issue as that i try to un plug it and was realy hard to unplug and bent the pins on the part coming from the mother board and the whole connector part from that stuck onto the mother board i bought it from a third party market place seller for the mother board so i dont know if they sold me a bad batch or something any ways looking to now if i should replace this with my warranty or try and fix guessing replace part of it looks like this https://www.picclickimg.com/d/l400/pict/223355340197_/USB-30-20pin-Male-to-Female-Extension-Adapter.jpg and the other part looks like this https://linustechtips.com/main/uploads/monthly_2018_01/27329679_1588598681176572_691320863_o.jpg.0701cf288f5dd410d6a4b9614e458a85.jpg these are form google not my own pc the board is the z370-e from asus https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/6211/6211754_sd.jpg;maxHeight=640;maxWidth=550 and the case is the 570x from corsair https://cdn.cnetcontent.com/syndication/mediaserver/inlinecontent/all/7a2/3f5/7a23f5533e4a835a19def1880c8100c8/original.png to say this was a bad first time experience on my first build is true and also is wondering if this happens a lot hopefully not and i just got bad luck so for the rush also just kinda upset and sad

May we see a picture of the damage? You didn't do the best job of explaining it.

 

But no, the internal USB 3.0 connector is rather robust, and not prone to breakage.

Brands I wholeheartedly reccomend (though do have flawed products): Apple, Razer, Corsair, Asus, Gigabyte, bequiet!, Noctua, Fractal, GSkill (RAM only)
