I just bought this case and I've noticed it has a front usb-c port. Could anyone tell me what would be a good mobo that would have both front and back c-ports?
I bought the Asus Hero 8 which I have now read only has a back usb c-port so the front port will be redundant. I may have to cancel this board or the case.
 
Sorry I took so long. I have already bought this case and it's on its way.
I am cancelling my Hero 8 because I just read on PC Part Picker and it says "Corsair 5000D AIRFLOW ATX Mid Tower Case has a front panel USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A port, but the Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero ATX AM4 Motherboard does not have sufficient USB 3.2 Gen 1 headers. The case USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A port will not be usable."
I have bought a 5900x MickyFlinn.
I was looking at the X570 Tomahawk. I think that has front USB-C too and no trouble with the other usb headers when I enter it in Part picker.
Also the Gigabyte Aorus eliet wifi has no problems with compatability here.
Actually i heard The Aorus Pro wifi is better. AAAH so confusing!
DO any of you have any experiences with these boards?

I'm not a masive overclocker tbh. I've dabbled. I just want a good board that's reliable and fits. The Tomahawk seems to be in first place so far and it's cheaper.
 
What about the Aorus pro wifi? I'm looking at it right now but can't tell tbh! Thanks btw.
Yes my spelling is atroscious! Sorry.
Scratch that it's a mini-itx. I'm having a break down lol!

X570 Aorus Pro has both rear USB-C and header for front USB-C.
But chipset cooler is worser than in Aorus Elite by having fan closer to graphics card slot making it clearly worser than in X570 Tomahawk.
(Aorus Ultra even worser with marketing excrement constricting fan)

My ears are starting to bleed lol. I thought the Tomahawk was an old board too but it's clearly in the lead.
 
I did read something about the tricks MSI was getting up to a while back. They were also treating some content creators on youtube really bad too. I was having doubts about them which is why I wasn't originally looking at this board but if you guys think it has a good reputation I may go for it. Thanks for the help on this you've made me close at least 20 tabs now!
Cheers gents!
 
This PC build is from all over the shop lol. All bought and done! Now I'm skint until I get a refund onthe cancelled board. Thanks again gentlemen!
 
Aahh yes! Brilliant! This was thelast thing I needed to do, search for a vid on this. I saw that theres a flash utility on th back which is really good. Thank you thank you!
