Hi guys,

I am currently trying to build my first PC build from scratch and I just wanna ask if a USB 2.0 port(from case) still perform like a USB 3.0 if it is connected to the USB 3.0 internal header of my Mother board.

Or will that USB 2.0 port(receptacle on the case, the non-blue one) limit my transfer speed and thus making the internal USB 3.0 header of my MoBo pointless to have?

Hoping for this to be clarified. :)
Thanks in advance!

@Gam3r01, Oh! Okay so the female pins from the USB 2.0 pins of the case only has 9pins while the USB 3.0 internal male header of my MoBo has 20 pins, right?

Thanks bro!

But, how do I go about it if I want a case that can utilize the USB 3.0 from my MoBo? Can I change the USB port on the case? or should I just find a case that offers this USB 3.0 port out-of-the-box?
