is there a converter I can get? I would love to be able to use my 2 front USB 3.0 slots.
before you ask, my motherboard is usb 3.0
Thanks, I now relize that those are 2.0 ports, well now I'm going to look for a cable that goes from that usb 3 cable to usb 2.0
this is my motherboard
(yes, I do use the 3.0 cables on the back, I just thought there were more on the mobo)
If you want to have your front USB ports to be actual 3.0 Get this Cooler Master USB 3.0 19pin to 2 external USB 3.0 Connectors - FrozenCPU.com
Remember using usb 3 ports on usb 2 devices does nothing, so unless you have a device that is actually usb 3.0 use the 2.0 ports. mouse kb headsets etc, mainly devices like external hdd's flashdrives external sound cards etc will be using usb 3 some network adapters too.
This device would make your front usb 3 ports into usb 2.0 FrozenCPU.com Internal USB3.0 Male to Internal USB 2.0 Female Adapter Cable (OCU67) - FrozenCPU.com
How many USB 3.0 enabled devices are you using?

so with this i can just connect the usb 3.0 connector into that thing linked, then plug it into the back of my computer?
o wait, how would i get the plug from the inside of my computer to the outside...
so that usb 3.0 connector is on the front of my computer, and my 2 usb 3.0 ports are on the back of my motherboard where all the other input/output ports are located
any suggestions?
thanks for your help!
