After some advice as I’m a bit confused by it all tbh. I’m fine with the practical side of things but once it gets to names and ports etc I get confused.
I’m switching cases and would like to have front usb c.
I am either going to swap motherboards to one with a front USB header, get a PCIe adaptor, or use an adaptor on the existing header.
But I get confused with the various types and names of usb. 2, 3.1, 3.2 etc. Idiot question, can someone tell me which of those is USB-C? I almost bought a new motherboard the other day because I’d assumed the 3.2 header was usb c. Thankfully I read a comment that mentioned the lack of usb c, if I hadn’t I’d have wasted £90.
Last question, I have the following motherboard
https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B450M-DS3H-rev-1x#kf
Am I correct in thinking my motherboard has two front usb headers so I could use one for the front usb a and use an adaptor on the second to add the usb c functionality?
Sorry for the idiot questions but I’d rather just ask for help to learn, than waste money on the wrong thing.
Thanks for any advice.
