I checked the motherboard specs and noticed the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 header. It seems there aren’t any compatible cases available, but someone might be able to explain its intended use.

It likely employs the identical USB-C front port, commonly found in contemporary cases such as Corsair 4000d and 5000d.

You can link it to a front panel USB port. Many listings mention USB-C 3.1 or 3.2, but those details are misleading. The actual USB version depends on the motherboard, while the case only supplies the internal connector and the physical interface.

Even so, I checked them and they only support USB 3.1.

Gen 3.1 and 3.2 share the identical connector on the motherboard. Identical pin configuration, the distinction lies in the technology of the USB Controller.

Yes, it can still be useful even with a 20Gbps header.

Could you clarify which system you're referring to?

Between the motherboard and the front of the case, only wires are present. No extra 20gbps wire exists. USB C required a unique interface because of power delivery and additional features that older USB headers couldn't provide. All modern USB C standards function properly. (We'll find out how USB 4 behaves, but it's not ready yet.)
