I recently got all the part together to build a custom computer and I made one mistake. I didn't make sure the mother board had enough header pins for the usb ports on the case. so now I am looking for a card that has the 2x5 9 usb header pins. my ideal requirements (which might be impossible to get) is a card that connects to the PCI Express x1 port has the 2x5 9 usb header pins and at least 2 usb ports in the back. anyone who knows of such a thing please help. the USB ports in the back are extra but the header pins and the PCI Express x1 connection is really what I want.
CPU = Intel i7 950
Motherboard = Asus P6X58D
RAM = Corsair XMS3 DDR3 3X 2GB
Power Supply = Corsair TX750W
Graphics Card = ATI HD 5870

Not sure if your looking for 2 internal 9 pin headers or not but I found this on newegg.com. Your post was a little hard for me to understand.

I need just one set of 9 header pins. not an internal usb port just the pins like what you would find on the mother board for the usb ports on the case.

this card has the pins http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16815158104 but it is expensive.
so they are out there.

you could buy a cheap USB cable, cut it and connect to wires from case. then plug into internal USB slot on less expensive cards.
