What does the USB connector on the ryzen 3700x box do?

 it comes with the Ryzen 7 3700X  , and I can't find any online, either. So, the thing has a fan connector  , and an RGB header  , and also a USB thing that eats up a USB header on the motherboard... and I have no idea what it's for. It's not powering the fan, and it shouldn't be powering the LEDs (since the LED RGB header has it's own power)... so... what does it do? Anyone?

The USB connection is only used if you don't have a suitable RGB header on your MB.  This allows you to control the LEDs with AMD's app instead of the RGB app for your MB.

No.  Your MB has an Asus AuraSync RBG header.  Don't use the USB at all.

The usb is there for people who don't have RGB motherboards.  You do.  You have two RGB headers on the board.  Use one of those instead.
