anyone have this board?? i have looked at manual and dont find this. but i am looking for a speaker connector.. my case does not have a speaker for post.. but it does have an aafp connector which i guess is for headphones, etc.. so i dont have anything to listen for POST beeps.. i wanted to get one of those mini "speakers" for post.. but i need the speaker copnnector. and i dont find one.. anyone have this board that can maybe give me a clue?? thanks.

setup:

rog strix x370-f board
ryzen 2700 x cpu
16 gig ram
geforce 1070ti graphics
4TB wd black HD
 
The manual clearly shows where the front panel headers are located, including connections for a speaker and the AAFP (front panel audio).

Headphones will not detect POST beeps. You need a speaker connected directly for that. Something like this:

i am using the aafp plug to my case which operates the headphone plug i guess on the case.. there is no speaker on the case itself. i DID get that speaker you showed me. however there are no pins on the motherboard to connect that to. only the aafp which is being used for the headset.. so i guess the answer is no i cant use the amazon speakers..
