Connecting USB 3.0 to Case I/O

[cc inc]

Hi,

I am planning on getting the Challenger-U3 case and the Asus P8Z68-V LE Motherboard, but have run into a problem. The USB header on the motherboard has 19 pins, but the connector on the case has 20 pins. Can I plug it in with/without an adapter, or will I have to look at a different motherboard? If so, any suggestions?

Thanks!

I think the connector just has an unused pin but I'm not certain. Do you have pictures of the two connectors?

No, i do not have a picture.

Scout, what do you mean? Is the 20th pin just unused, and if so, I can use them together?

if you look at the user manual the pin 20 do not have a connector on it so if you case got a usb 3.0 front panel it will work ,use the link
