My new case (Thermaltake Core v71) has 2 USB 3.0 ports on the front panel however i can't use them. There is plug for USB 3.0 but i can't find appropiate socket for it on the motherboard. I guess it supports USB 3.0, there is USB 3.0 layout on it and i am actually using rear usb 3.0 ports.
ASUS M5A97 PRO USB 3.0 socket?

It has to be rev 2 of that board to have USB3 onboard but you can use the front USB as USB2 with this adapter http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812162025

No because that adapter allows you to plug the 20pin USB3 connector into the normal USB2 header. Here is a cheaper one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812423189&cm_re=usb2_to_usb3-_-12-423-189-_-Product
