    Why are my USB 3.0 sockets on my motherboard only showing as USB 2.0


    I am trying to run my meta quest 2 via a USB 3.0 socket on my gigabyte Z97X Gaming 3 board. but meta is only recognizing it as a USB 2.0.I am using a compatible cable that has the correct rating although it will not recognize that im using a USB 3.0 socket?

    :)
     

  2. USB 3.0 Question

    That is the add in I have. I got it off the CM store. They also list an adapter, but I've yet to see it listed as in stock and can't seem to find any others.
     
  3. Internal USB 3.0 to external USB 3.0

    Not sure where to post this....
    I have a case that has 1 USB 2.0 and 2 USB 3.0 ports, a motherboard that only has external USB 3.0 support, and girls in my house that will not understand that only the USB 2.0 port works. So, I'm looking for a way to run a connector from the internal 3.0 connector from the case, out the back and plug into the 2 3.0 on the back I/O panel. I have found some on e-bay, but they are coming from China and I can't seem to find the right length that would look good as well.
    Suggestions?
    Case is a white Nanoxia Deep Silence 4 (has water cooling ports to run cables through)
    Motherboard is an Intel DH67GD (has 14 USB 2.0 ports!)
