    Motherboard USB Pins

    Hi Everyone. I was looking to add a few more USB ports to my motherboard but wasn't sure about the naming of what I want. I have a couple extra USB pins on the motherboard and wondering what the product is called that would take those pins and convert them to USB ports. Any help would be great.

    the "couple extra pins" on the motherboard is the USB header.

    you simply need a cable to connect to it. you can get cables by themselves, or you can get cables with female USB ports at the other end. they are very common, you get them at any computer store, or many online retailers.. here is an example of what you need
