Well, if I'm not mistaken, I believe that USB is 5v by default. I've never
measured it with a voltmeter or anything, but that's what I've always heard.
Also, I know that a lot of the folks who do controller and case hacking will
borrow the +5v power from the USB ports to power controllers - for example
original NES controllers can be used through the parallel port, but you need
to provide +5v which you can steal from one of your molex connectors from
your power supply, or you can get it from the USB port. I've done this by
stealing from a spare molex, but I know of others who have stolen from the
USB ports.
