Motherboard: MSI 990FXA-GD65 That's exactly what I wanted, thanks!

Hi all, I recently purchased a new case, the Zalman Z11, and knew it had 2 USB front ports. What I also knew is that my motherboard does not have USB 3 headers and that the USB 3 cable in the case is a "passthrough". I read that to be able to use the front ports you have to buy an adapter that...

Tested it out using a friend's computer and it still didn't work. So I took it to a local computer store and he told me it was my motherboard. Sent it in and got a new one, everything is fine now. Thanks all!

I found the Haf 912 advanced for R800($80). It's a good price because the Haf 912 is normally around R1000+($100+)
