SO i was building my mini ix pc in the bitfenix prodigy. I forgot that my motherboard didnt have any usb 3.0 header. I just wanted to know if there was anyway to get those front usb 3.0 ports to work. Can i convert them so that it can connect to a usb 2.0 header.
 
It'll limit you to USB 2.0 speeds. But it won't be any worse than a native USB 2.0 port. USB 3.0 is just USB 2.0 with additional pins and tighter signaling standards.

As for whether Newegg sells them, they should. However you'll have to do a bit of searching for one since they're a highly generic part (and not necessarily well named).
