    Where to buy serial port?
    « on: January 11, 2012, 04:47:24 AM »
    I am planning on buying an MSI P67A-GD55 (B3) motherboard and I noticed it has a serial port header onboard. I would like to know where I wan buy an adapter to utilise this header. I searched it up and found this: http://www.cablestogo.com/product.asp?cat_id=3543&sku=28300
    But that is just for Intel motherboards. Does anyone know where I can get one for my motherboard?

    You can get those in the form of PCI cards or USB dongles as well.

    It will work if the Intel & MSI mobo pinouts are the same.  You'll have to do some homework.
