Hi everyone,

I had recently purchased an Asus Z87-Pro motherboard to put in my Antec 300 Illusion case. When checking the compatibility on PCpartpicker, I got this notice...

Asus Z87-PRO ATX LGA1150 Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the Antec Three Hundred Illusion ATX Mid Tower Case does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports.

Is this going to be a big deal or a hassle? I'm not sure what I need to know about this.

Thank you!

It means that the motherboard has a 20pin usb3.0 header that you can connect a 20pin usb3.0 cable to, to extend it into 1 or 2 usb3.0 ports in the front of the case, if the case you're using has that cable. Since the Antec 300 doesn't have that cable, the 20pin connector of Asus Z87-Pro can't be used, that's all. There are no problems with incompatibility here.
