Hello,
I've been looking for a motherboard to get for some system upgrades, and on PCPartPicker, I keep running into a compatibility issue with my current case, which is a Cooler Master Centurion 5 ATX Mid. Because the case does not have USB 3.0 headers, any motherboard I add to my list comes up with the compatibility problem. A couple of the motherboards I have looked at are the Gigabyte GA-797X-SLI and the ASRock 797 Extreme6. Would it really matter if the case does not have USB 3.0 headers, or do I need a new case which supports it? It does have two ports in the back of the case for 3.0. Thank you.
