Motherboard Question...

[Elite]

I purchased the following motherboard:
Gigabyte GA-K8NSC-939.
and i want to connect the motherboard to my 2 front USB ports (by cable) on my new case.
The problem is, i don't know what the cable is called so i don't know what to ask for when i go shopping.
The cable connects in the F_USB1/F_USB2 (Front USB Connector)

Any help will be much appreciated.

your front usb's should have a cable coming out in the case.

Have a look at: http://www.directron.com/installusb.html
and tell me, if that's the cable(s) needed.

Your case should have connectors like these:

I'm still not sure.

My case does have connectors like this but there are two yellow connectors on the motherboard with 9 pins each. I'm not sure where to connect each connector from the case to get the front USB ports working. Will i have to get two of these? (see below):

Any help, will be MUCH appreciated because i'm new to this sort of stuff!

Are there any wires at all which seem to come from where the front USB's on your case are?

 

[Elite]

Yes there are (the connectors look like the ones above on the pic that Praetor posted). The actual writing on the connectors is different to mine.

Note: I have 2 connectors on my motherboard, they are yellow and have 9 pins each. They look a bit like this.

Well, tell us what they say then

Picture.

Have a look:

I hope this helps.

 

[Praetor]

Well,
1. you dont have to worry about "No pin" and "NC"
2. What you have labeled as Data1, is marked as DX (Data2 is DY)
3. Pin7 is Ground1, Pin8 is Ground2

But I have 2 of these connectors:

How can i connect the wires above ^^^ (see my previous posts) between the 2 connectors on the Mobo to get the front USB working?

 

[Praetor]

But I have 2 of these connectors:

So? If you only have 1 set of wires then you only connect 1 (well i mean you could try connecting 2 with only 1 set of wires but that might be hard)

 

[Elite]

If you only have 1 set of wires then you only connect 1

But if i connect to only 1 of the possible 2 connectors, Will both of the front USB ports work?

 

[Praetor]

If you look at your manual it says Dx±, Dy± -- thats two connectors.

Yes in my manual i found the following:
Pin No. Definition
1--------Power
2--------Power
3--------USB DX-
4--------USB Dy-
5--------USB DX+
6--------USB Dy+
7--------GND
8--------GND
9--------No Pin
10-------NC
