usb 2.0 vs usb 15

I have a bud who has a Asus x470 vii hero that has 1 usb 2.0 heard and 1 usb 15 port. What is the usb 15 port used for?

Do you mean USB 1.1 rather than 1.5?

But the Asus x470 vii hero seems to have USB 3.1 and USB 2.0 anyway ROG CROSSHAIR VII HERO | Motherboards | ASUS USA

Yeah, not sure what USB 15 is. There's also no USB 1.5 as stated by Try3.

If you look at the mobo manual and on page 1-17, it shows the usb headers....1 is usb 2.0 and the other is usb 15 and then look at the voltages for each. They are completely different.

Then there's either an error or you're reading it wrong - there is no USB 15 or USB 1.5. Google it.

The connector in question is a USB 2.0 header - USB 112 and 15 appear the be pin numbers or locations , but the port itself is definitely identified as a USB 2.0 connector.

No such thing.

This cool mobo has USB 3.1 Gen 2 - nice.

So why does the manual say "USB 15" as it clearly states shows in post # 5? Next question, what is it for? From what I searched that USB 15 is for some Asus ROG Base system controller. Which seems now that Asus no longer makes.

With all due respect - did you actually read the page you referred to

Also, why would Asus install an item on a newly released board if they no longer support it

We're still just as confused with this port anomaly.......

Yes....I'm looking at the VIII Hero for myself.......

Thanks for the input.
