Just finished my new build but cannot find the 4 pin speaker header.  On page 31 of the manuel in mentions it but cannot find it on the Mother Board lay out.

Anyone know where it is?

Hello ExcessiveGBH

The speaker header is usually in the top row towards the front of the front panel header.

It's listed in the manual, but I don't see anywhere to connect a speaker to the front panel header.

The speaker is used for diagnosing problems with beep codes. The speaker isn't all that important as you have a q-code led readout that does basically the same thing. If you have issues, the q-code can help identify the problem.

It's still annoying not have it, as first line of fault analyses. You can even have false negatives, remember the 3090 Strix issues.
