I'm planning to get the Ryzen 2700x but I have one problem on my mind, the Wraith Prism cooler has a RGB Cable and a USB Cable. I know the differences of them and I know the USB Cable allows full control of the LED Lights, but for my motherboard (ASRock B450 Pro4) has it's USB 2.0 Port at the bottom of the Motherboard, how would I thread it down there? I have a Graphics Card blocking it, and I don't think the cable has enough length to go around it near the heatsink. Plus, I can't leave the cable at the Motherboard Heatsink. What do I do? I like to clarify things before I buy something just to make sure I won't fail. I have a 2 Pictures on the position of the USB 2.0 Port and my GPU in the way. (22, 21 are the 2 USB 2.0 Ports for Mobo)

Solution
What do you mean 'thru the back'?
I ran mine across the board, under the gap at the rear* of gfx card to get to the bottom of the board where the RGB (and USB) header was.

* by 'rear*, I am referring to the end at the back of the case.
