USB 3.0 On Antec 1200

On my Antec 1200 case, there's a USB 3.0 port. The way to have the port to work (I geuss?) is via USB. What I was wondering is, do I plug in the USB to the USB 3.0 port on my motherboard (Gigabyte Z68-UD3H-B3)? And if that's the case, would USB 2.0 items (Ipod charger, etc.) work in the port, making it faster?

Note: Sorry if this thread confuses anyone, I just wasn't sure how to word it properly
