There are allways solutions for those smart of brain.
My black case came with front usb conenctors, and i dont use em either... all they do is hook up with the rear mobo usb ports anyway. you can just use your normal rear USb ports or hubs or usb cards etc. Getting additional ports isnt hard, many motherboards come with 2 or 4 as standard with a plugin pci slot for an extra 2.

As with mine i actually removed the cables to the front to reduce clutter.

I don't quite get your question. Do you mean that you don't want all of the wires to plug into each pin individually and would rather have them in a single connector? If so, what I did was just carefully remove each wire and arranged them in a single connector (which I had lying around) according to my mobo's specs.

Oh. Okay. I know what you're saying. Duh. I've never run across a case that just runs wires from front to back. The Lian Li does indeed plug directly into the mobo.

MS internet pro keyboard comes with 2 usb ports built into them, pretty cool (easy access) if you don't want to use the back ones in your case and don't have front ports in case
