    If you have room on the front you could put this on it.

    From what I can ses there is no front usb 3.0 header on that board.

    It only supports the 2 rear usb 3.0.

    If its for just connecting peripherals you wont see any difference with usb 2/3.

    Ive only really found usb 3.0 useful for file transfers to usb sticks, hdd etc and such where the transfer rate is higher

    Im fairly sure there is a way to connect up the case usb using the rear two usb.

    Think its male usb 3.0 to male19 pin usb adapter

    On phone so cant really check:(

    You can either use something like this in a free PCI-E slot to connect the case too (which will give you full 3.0 speeds), or you can use this to connect the 3.0 panel to a 2.0 header on your motherboard (giving you 2.0 speeds)

    I got this a few weeks back

    Does what you're asking, the usb 3.0 from your front panel should have a wire inside that will connect to this but your motherboard only has 1 PCI-E slot, if you're not using it then you could hook this up.

    There is only one of those pci slots on the board,I think the op needs that for a wireless card.

    May have to choose one or the other unfortunately

    Thanks for all the replies, yes I need the PCI e slot for wireless card, I ordered a regular PCI to begin with so had to order the correct one. Will have the use of the two on the back that will do the job for what will be occasional use anyway. G

    This might work, the 1 reviewer used it to get the front panel usb port working using the rear usb ports
