Any USB cards with three sets of header pins? The new stacker case has six front USB ports, requiring three headers, but my motherboard only has two. I seem to be stuck with either 1) adding a card, or 2) hijacking an external port.

If anyone has an idea on how to do 2), I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks.
 
What is wrong with using the two on your motherboard and getting a usb card for the third? Are you going to actually use all six? An alternative is to hack up a usb hub and hide it inside your computer.
 
Actually the situation is worse than that - the internal card reader is also USB, so I will have 4-5 cables looking for headers. I have the feeling that hacking a hub will be the optimum solution (or simply getting a new m/b with more headers).
 
do you have to use ALL of them? i have a card reader, and it make my front usb ports useless.. but it doesnt really matter, since i dont use them all anyway
