I want to use the USB type C from my Case Front Header for the long term and don't want to regret buying a cheap PCI-e USB Type C connector.
I don't mind if it is a bit pricy, as long as it has good quality. do you have a recommendation for this?
 
Solution
From what I understand here:
  • You probably don't have a motherboard with a Type E header

  • You can use an adapter to convert Type E to USB 3.0 headers, but you probably only have one USB 3.0 header and it's already being used.
  • There appear to be plenty of Type E header PCIe cards on Amazon. I can't recommend any because I don't use any. Just look for something that has a lot of review and most of them are positive.
  • I'm assuming what you mean by "Type B" is a full size Type B. But otherwise, there are plenty of Type C to B, Mini B, or Micro B around.
Just a couple of questions:
  • What case do you have?
  • What features do you want the USB-C port to have?

  • The Case I have right now is Pure Base 500 DX
  • for the feature for now I want to use a USB Type B Hub Connector, sometimes my mini printer device since it uses Type C Connector

since you asking too, do you have any recommendation for a good USB Type B Hub Connector using type C?
