You're planning to upgrade with a 12400f and an MSI Pro H610M-E, and you're checking if your case supports USB-C. Just let me know and I can help you find out!

Visit the product page, check the specifications, and ensure the board lacks a front panel Type C—it won’t appear there.

USB-C refers to the specific physical connector on the case. Examine how that port links to the motherboard, which determines the internal plug type. Review the motherboard's internal USB headers to ensure compatibility. Consult the detailed specifications here: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/PRO-H610...cification

It doesn't. The labels for USB-C headers in case are typically referred to as USB 3.2 headers, and you'll commonly see them on B660 and above chipsets. PCPartPicker offers a filter for that: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/mother...price&s=40 It appears this is the case.

On PC Part Picker it usually indicates the interface options available for the board you chose. After selecting one (you should already have done so), continue scrolling down and you'll see compatibility charts for your CPU, GPU, power supply, and other components (including interface details).

Yes, there are options available to change a USB A header to a USB C connector.

It's feasible, though the Type C port might not perform as expected.
