I can Post more if some once has any queries or requirements.

Small Review:

1. USB 3 to USB 2 Conversion Cable Not Included so 2 Front Panel USB became useless.
2. very Quiet Rig with 5 fans.
3. Overall temps came down by 5 Deg after I switched to 410 from Elite 335.
4. Awesome Looks.
5. Cosair Cables are pain in ass to bend. Had hard time doing cable management.
6. Motherboard 8 Pin Power connector can not be routed behind tray due to less length and also no provision to make it come out in the Top left corner.
7. Grommets Are not great. Every grommet came out while cable routing and hard to resit.
8. GTX 560 Ti Fits Easy with space left for a 120 mm fan.
9. Tool Less Mechanism for HDD is OK but DVD doesn't fit tight so used the Thumb screws provided.
10. EVO got fitted with 8-10 mm clearance to spare
11. CPU Idle Temp dropped by 6 Deg :shock:

Congrats ! Happy gaming.

You buy it from here Bro :- BitFenix.com Products Accessories Internal USB 3.0 Adapter

T

The Listed retailers don't have the item listed. :S

try this one and keep me updated on its availabilty
since i have phantom 410 and will build my rig soon
Internal to External USB 3.0 Adapter (2 ports) - Cooler Master - Leading Provider of Computer Case | Cooler | Power Supply

That one is useless for the need. We need a Male 19 Pin Adapter at one end (Like this one has) and on the other end 2 Female USB Connectors to met with Motherboard (The one you showed has Outlet Connections which cant be fitted to Mobo)

Exactly this is what is needed.

@Tech_Wiz : Was Corsair VX450W unable to handle GTX 560Ti?
Or did you change the PSU for future upgrades?

T

Basically Future Upgrades + OC Headroom.

VX450W was sufficient for a Non OCed 560Ti COnfig.

by the way, where is your phantom410 with corsair hx pics?

Hello Tech_Wiz (and others):

I also have a mobo with USB 2.0 headers, and would like to install USB 3.0 connectors on the front panel. The same as you, I am seeking an adapter to connect USB 2.0 mobo headers to USB 3.0 20-pin.

Did the Lian cable below work for you?

Thanks,
cerkit reaker
