Computer Case with USB 3.0

[tarzan54]

Just bought a computer case that has USB 3.0, But my Motherboard only supports a USB 2.0, Anyone know where I can find or if they make an adapter for USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 so I can plug the power supply for the USB 3.0 into my motherboard.

Just plug the card into your PCIe slot, you need a molex plug coming from your power supply though.

That's what I got and that's what I did and it works fine. Three external (and powered) USB 3.0 ports and one internal, decent price, yay!

Thanks, does this allow me to plug my my cable on my case into this card so I can use my USB ports on the front of my case? Or does it just give me ports into the back of my case? Because I don't want to slide my computer out of my desk everytime to get to the back of the case.

Thanks Moontrash, Perfect, just what I was looking for so I could hook up my USB 3.0 on my new case.

Yes that card I linked to has a 3.0 connector but the ones Moontrash linked to have a 19 pin connector.
