I'm probably going to pickup a couple of these

My pcs are x58a and 870a chipset so older design. They do have usb3 controller bit the ports are round the back on the backplate.

I'm not sure if they gave terminal connectors on the motherboard, but if they don't how would I eire them up, unless I use usb to usb cable round back but that probably isn't ideal.

Cases are antec p180 and stacker 810

The antec doesn't have screws so fitting 5.25" bay could be issue as only held in by clips, or nothing at all

Except few odd ones all connector panels have USB header cables.

There are cables for turning normal USB ports back to header:
CRJ 9-Pin USB IDC Dupont Male Header to Dual USB 2.0 Type A Male Cable
RAYSUN Dual 2 Port USB 3.0 A Type Male to 20Pin Header Male Slot Adapter
