I'm a first-time builder, and I successfully put everything together earlier this month, except for the front usb 3.0 set up, which didn't make sense to me and I didn't want to deal with at the time. I want to address that now, but I'm still confused.
My case is the Antec 1200 v3, and my motherboard is the Asus P8-Z68 pro gen3. After reading up on what others wrote about the case and the front usb 3.0, It seems like everyone was saying that the cables that came with their case were just an extension that you have to route outside the case and plug into the rear usb port. The cable that I got is different though... I'm not sure if Antec updated this and I got the new version, but my cable bundle from the front ports has TWO usb 3.0 20-pin header cables. Why are there two, is this normal? Do I need to connect both of them to my motherboard? I read somewhere else that 1 header should power two usb ports. Any help appreciated.
