After a lot of discussions i have planned to buy the Asrock 870 Extreme3.

But while going through some images of the mobo i found that there is no Mouse head, theres only a Keybord head!...So how can i connect a Mouse in this Mobo.
Please help me guys.

You get images here-

Use a USB mouse. Actually I think that port supports either a keyboard OR mouse, so try it out and perhaps use a USB keyboard.
 
Sorry, but you're SOL. You need to either get a USB keyboard or a USB mouse. I say get a USB optical mouse since then you don't have to worry about the trackball getting dirty. I still use a PS/2 keyboard myself, but finally got an optical mouse because I got tired of cleaning my old trackball.

I have a PS/2 optical mouse if you really want to use that other PS/2 connector.
