There is no rule for that. The M/B USB ports are hard wired to the M/B. The ones on the case are plugged into the USB headers on the M/B. Both work off the same controller. The board/CPU will limit the number of USB ports you can have total.

Oh, are you concerned that some of the motherboard's USB headers aren't going to be used? That's no problem. Very few rigs have all the USB 2.0 headers populated. The number of rear ports plus the number of headers (x 2) is the total USB 2.0 ports you can have. The USB 3.0 ports will connect to a different header, and may need a driver installed before they become active.
