What is the port on the top right (beside the HDMI port) used for?

The description is listed as:
  • Ultrafast Connectivity: PCIe 4.0, two M.2 slots, Realtek 2.5Gb Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6, rear USB 3.2 Gen 2, front USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C®
  • I have not listed specs of this new system from winver because it's not up and running yet.

Top right connector is DisplayPort
The two HDMI and the DisplayPort are all video outputs.
If your CPU has an IGP (Integrated Graphics Processor), built in... these ports are where the video signal will be.




For example... this is my vid card. RED = DisplayPort and BLUE = HDMI
And the tiny one = USB-C

If only you could search for your motherboard on Google, you could find the manual.

The PC makers just sent me this:

Asus Prime B760M-A AX D4 mx00123998

I believe both options will have a similar display.

2x HDMI® v2.1 ports (Up to 4K/60Hz)
1x DisplayPort v1.4 port (Up to 4K/60Hz)
