USB 3.1 documentation reference
Hey there, welcome to the forum! You're on the right track with your setup. The issue you're facing is common when connecting USB-C ports that don't match the header type on your motherboard. Since your front panel has a USB 3.0 header and the USB-C port lacks a 3.1 header, you’ll need a compatible adapter. Your idea of using a USB 3.0 header on the motherboard to connect the front panel USB-C and then routing it through the splitter is feasible if you use a USB-C to USB 3.0 adapter. Just make sure the adapter supports the specific version of USB-C your device requires. Good luck with your build!
Wow, USB is really problematic right now. I might have to settle for a similar solution. As long as the parts function properly, it should work fine.
Thanks in advance! Excited to know I'm heading in the right direction.
I understand, I wasn't checking that before getting my mobo, but I hope this solution actually functions.
It's said the 'U' in 'USB' means 'Universal,' but I'm not sure if that's true!
