Hello, hope this is the correct section as I don't know what half of the words on the titles of the forums mean...
I recently purchased this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Akasa-AK-HDA-06BK-inch-Adapter-Extension/dp/B006Z9WX8M/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1356442093&sr=8-7
so that I don't have to fiddle about at the back of my pc putting my USB 3.0 flash drive in.
My mobo is this:
http://www.foxconnchannel.com/ProductDetail.aspx?T=Motherboard&U=en-us0000514
It has two USB 3.0 ports on the back so I assumed it would have the necessary pin connector on the inside. As far as I can tell, it doesn't (correct me if I'm wrong).
What I want to know, is, do I need one of these?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Express-Adapter-Converter-Motherboard-Connector/dp/B008IPXOWU
and if i do, would it fit my mobo?
Are there any other cheaper alternatives to that which also avoid having two USB cables sticking out of a hole on the back of my case and going into the two USB 3.0 ports on the back of my mobo?
Also, sorry for lack of jargon but if i got this card, I'd have something in both of the yellow PCI slots (PCI-e slots?) and the two white-ish ones would be empty. Would a modern graphics card go in the white-ish ones or the small yellow one? (the bigger yellow one already has a wireless card in it).
Thanks in advance for any helps.
Mike.
