Title. Will it damage the rest of my computer eventually? Thankfully it's not a mobo usb, it's a case usb. Answers appreciated.
 
Doubt it,If i were you i just wouldn't plug it into the motherboard...you don't have to connect it. :)
 
Depends o nwhether the USB connectors within the case are destroyes (ie;frayed).. But just having a damaged USB port will in no way effect your computer overall
 
If you connect it to the motherboard and try inserting a USB device, it just won't work, or will pop up with an error message that the USB port is overloaded.
 
I have seen multiple instability issues on computers due to damaged USB ports. I would physically disconnect the offending port prior to connecting the computer to it.
