I have a thermaltake case that does not have usb 3.0 ports. The motherboard I want has 3.0 connectors. Do I need to upgrade the case, or is there a workaround? Also, is are there any motherboards you would recommend that have 2.0 connectors, because I would rather not spend money on a good case.

Thanks.

How many 3.0 ports do you want? What motherboard do you want, and what do you want to use it for? Why do you want usb 3.0? Is the new motherboard compatible with your ram and cpu?

The usb 3.0 ports are built into/onto the board. so once you install it in your current case your ports will be on the back. the ports on your case will remain 2.0.

Basically, I was looking at a couple of H97 boards, but they use usb 3.0 connectors. I don't want to upgrade my case, so I was looking for some sort of workaround, or a recommended motherboard that would work with my case.
