So I'm currently working on a new system and My case has a USB 3.1 Gen 2 C port but I don't have that connection port on my Motherboard, when I bought the stuff I honestly didn't care but now I'm kinda interested if there's an easy and cheap solution for that (and no I don't want to use any of my M.2 slots for that) Motherboard is the ASUS ROG Strix b550-f gaming if there's no easy solution then I don't really care about it that much thx in advance (ah yeah and sorry for my limited English skills)

You can utilize an available PCI-E slot by connecting a USB 3.1 front panel socket with a USB 2.0 to PCI-E Express card adapter to your motherboard. Just ensure the front panel cable is sufficiently long to reach the device.

I’m using just one graphics card for now; the others will remain unused. For the rest, I’ll focus on organizing cables to avoid clutter and keep the case tidy. Thanks!

I mistakenly thought you were inquiring about a USB 3.2 Gen 2 type-C connector on your motherboard. You can buy it from New Egg; it arrives from China and may take a few weeks. I received my 3/29 on 4/14. The connector delivers 10Gbps, which is a solid feature.
