F_USB1~2: Front Panel USB 2.0 headers (F_USB1 supports EZ Charger)
The motherboard has two USB 2.0 headers supporting four USB 2.0 ports. Addition-
ally, some computer cases have USB ports at the front of the case. If you have this
kind of case, use auxiliary USB connector to connect the front-mounted ports to the
motherboard.
Unlike F_USB2 in this mainboard, F_USB1 supports EZ Charger technology, pro-
vides 3 times current than general USB port in off mode for USB devices. It is useful
and excellent, especially for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices that need a
large amount of current for faster recharging within less time.
