Just wonder because i build a new PC and ive already got a case and was looking at Asus Z170 Pro Gaming Motherboard but on part picker it says there not compatible because Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the CiT Vantage ATX Mid Tower Case does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports. Is this a problem? and if so what are the solutions?

Solution
It just means you wont have any front USB 3.0 ports, but the board itself will at the back. Not a problem unless you want front 3.0 ports.

It's a problem only if you want to have front USB 3.0 ports, to attach external hard drives, charge your phone, etc
otherwise it won't be a problem, solution would be to get a case with front USB 3.0 ports to connect to your mobo header, or to get a 5.25 front panel w/ 3.0 ports
