on board USB2 & Firewire connectors

Hello,

I have an ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe Board. I am curious to know if there would
be a performance boost (less usage of CPU) if I did not use the on board
USB2/Firewire connectors that the optional adapters connect to and use a
Belkin PCI combo card instead(has both firewire & USB2).

Thanks,
Shane

Since the onboard USB/Firewire connectors run off the same bus,
it should not make a difference in terms of performance. If so,
then why waste a peripheral slot?
