dcx4610 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I have a question about the Corsair Hydro coolers and the USB plug. I don't have any free USB 2.0 headers and wondering if I can do something different. Here is what the Corsair Hydro comes with... Rather than use the Mini-USB to USB 2.0 header, could I use a Mini-USB to male USB cable instead like this and just route it to the back of my case? If it works, would there be any difference in using a USB port vs. a header? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Yes, you can do this. Makes no difference at all. I ran mine like this for several months. Works like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcx4610 Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thanks guys. Time to find a cable that is long enough to route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcx4610 Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 One more dumb question. Would the USB cable included with the Link be considered a right angle or left angle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Don't know ... and it doesn't really matter, at least from a functional perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
