I'm in the process of building my first PC. I've a CM K380 case, in which there is a cable from front panel which have the markings as VCC, D-,D+,GND,GND one below another. wat is the use of that cable? Where should I connect it in my GA-Z170X-Gaming 5 mobo?

The USB 2.0 headers on the motherboard are 2-port connections. You will plug that cable into the part of the header that has 5 pins. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/VmiZEovXxYHQURwW.medium
The row that has 4 pins will also work because the connector has a redundant ground.

Yes that cabinet has one USB2.0 and one USB3.0 port in the front.

I'm using Gigabyte Z170X Gaming 5 Motherboard. I'll check it and update this thread.
