Best to refer to the manual, most times two pin headers like those are jumpers of some sort or a test point that was used at the factory. You'll find lots of boards with stuff like this on it some labels on the PCB directly as a jumper for clearing or changing settings.

Surprisingly the manual doesn't mention these 2 pins, mentions everything but the 2 pins in the picture lol.

I looked at some pictures of the motherboard on google and none seem to have this pin header on it. Are you sure you're on a B350M Mortar?

Most likely it's for something internal then, and not meant to be used by the end user.

Blimey, haven't seen a case come with one of them for a while :P 

 

JFP2 is the header for that one.

Any one good with fan/rgb controllers? The fan that came with my case works fine, but the rgb on the fan and front panel doesn't turn on at all.

After digging a little, it seems that pin header (JOV1) may be a jumper header used for overvolting the CPU above the standard limits in the BIOS... Probably best not to mess with it...

There's no place like ~
