Looking for a new motherboard, my old one only supported usb 2.0 headers and im looking for one that supports 3.0 as well. My question is, is there a motherboard that supports both, I can only see ones that say 3.0, does that mean it has 2.0 as well?

Thanks

whats ur price range, what cpu do you have as well as case, is it a full size tower or what. also most if not all of them that i know of support both usb 2 and 3.0
edit: u can also look at the pictures of the usb ports and see, the blue ones are 3.0 and the black ones are 2.0
