I want to add native USB ports to my computer.

My motherboard has 2 internal USB 3 headers which support 2 ports each. I would like to add 2 ports to the front and 2 to the back. I just don't know what exactly to buy to achieve this so would really like someone to give Amazon or Newegg links for the said products. Thanks.

Evidently, I shouldn't be shopping on my phone.

Cheapest option: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA57F37U6682 . Not sure about shipping cost, though they say free.

Second-cheapest option: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817986029

Thank you that's perfect. It's interesting that none of the major brands make these accessories I guess they are an extremely niche thing as most people just buy external USB hubs when they run out of native ports. My current mobo has USB 3.1 and Type-C but the actual quantity of the IO is surprisingly limited, a thing I overlooked when buying it. It's just not something I thought would be something to look at given the price, full ATX size and premium features of the mobo. Oh well I guess there is always something to learn no matter how experienced we become.
