Information about usb 3.1 type-c

Hi guys I need an advice from you if I may ask.

In short with my motherboard and my case I can't use the USB 3.1 type-c front panel connector of the case.

Is there a way to add 3.1 header support to my motherboard by any chance?

Thank you kindly for your support.

I guess you'd need a new motherboard 🙂 (if there are any)
No USB 3.1 Gen2 extension support on Maximus VIII

Max VIII has no internal provisions for 3.1 Gen 2 USB.
You could add a Gen 2 3.1 PCIE card with an internal connector for your front ports. Choose your card carefully.
