    I'm ready to order my case for my Peg 2. I chose the Lian Li PC-6070 (http://www.lian-li.com/product.php?action=viewPD&prdid=1106). It has 2 front USB 2.0 ports, will the Peg 2 front USB 1.1 work in a 2.0 USB port?

    Thanks,

    Matt

    Electrically usb2.0 and 1.1 are identical.

    Cables and connectors for full speed and high speed are the same. Only usb 2.0 supports now officially the mini connectors which were inofficial with 1.1.
    Only cables for low speed devices differ, but you never have the chance to mess around with those cables since they must attached to the low speed devices directly and non-removeable.

    Conclusion:
    No problems with the connectors at that case. The mentioning of usb2.0 on their (lian´s) page is just marketing...
