USB Connection to motherboard probs

[dantis]

I am assembling my first PC and have a question concerning the connection of the front USB's.

My case is the I-Cute 0314TL-BB so the USB connection wires are all seperate, the 9 wires are labelled as follows:

1 +5v
2 +5v
1 D-
2 D-
1 D+
2 D+
1 ground
2 ground
GND

My motherboard is the Gigabyte GA-8I915G-MF
Each USB block is labelled as follows:

Pin No. Definition
1 Power
2 Power
3 DX-
4 DY-
5 DX+
6 DY+
7 GND
8 GND
9 No pin
10 NC

Therefore after connecting the 2 +5v to pins 1 and 2, the 2 D- and D+ to pins 3,4,5 and 6 and the 2 ground to pins 7 and 8, I am left with a single wire (GND), do I connect this or not, I have a spare pin 10 marked NC, which I assumed was not connected.

Your help would be much appreciated.

Skip the extra GND. You shouldn't need it with the other two ground connections. Just make sure 1D+/1D- are on one side and 2D+/2D- are on the other side.
