I'm looking for a new Z97 mATX motherboard but I'm having difficulty tracking one down in Canada, more specifically Alberta. Long story short, I did something stupid, broke the USB3 header (whoops), and just for my own sanity's sake I'd like to replace it if at all possible. 

 

Last I checked, eBay, Kijiji, Amazon, and Memory Express have nothing.

Well, this might not satisfy your OCD, but there are two other cheaper options (depending on if you just want your front panel USB to work or if you want the onboard USB header to work): 

  1. Replace the USB header
  2. Add a USB PCIE card that has a usb header on it

I haven't actually looked into replacing the header, so maybe I should look into that haha. Thanks!

 

Unfortunately OCD in that sense gets the best of me, I've thought about those solutions, but I was just putting in feelers to see how much it might cost me.
