USB 3.0 link speeds require certain physical connections. Last time I went shopping for type C to type C cables, all the budget friendly ones were 2.0 speeds only unfortunately.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

i would look at a solution towards the motherboard drivers, I think you may need to try the chipset ones. Maybe updating the bios otherwise? I doubt that solves it but that's about it

However this is strange but it's what @Fasauceome  said

If the USB A cable is USB 3.0, but the USB C cable is USB 2.0, that would explain it.

A USB port typically won't show up in device manager as far as I know. Only the USB controller that manages multiple ports, and any single device that may already be plugged into a USB port

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B
