As the owners of the ECS k7s5a know, the "elite" company does not include the extra USB HEADER CABLE in the retail box.

I emailed ECS and MS. Michelle_Penney@ecsusa.com answered my request for info on how to obtain the cable. She referred me to Belkin who wants $28 bucks + shipping. Thats more than 33% of the cost of the mobo!!!

I can't believe that ECS doesn't even stock the cable!
Does anyone know where this cable can be had at a reasonable price? Thanks much!!!:frown:

Old news. What do you want with a $64 Motherboard?? You're lucky you got a ribbon cable. 😉 Seriously, my ASUS A7M266 came with the USB bracket, but I also paid $170.00 for that board. The ECS can outperform that board and costs almost 1/3 the price! You got a bargin.

OK, now to your question. You can find a nice USB bracket that works for it at CableClub.com. If you can believe it, they're only $1.00! Of course, the shipping for me (CA) for two was $6.68. So I paid $8.68 or $4.34 each with shipping. Not bad I guess. Hey, if you like that, they also have some of the worlds ugliest rounded cables on a "Seasoning Special Offer!" (their words, not mine) for only $8.99. You can see them here if you dare. .
