Can I access USB C in this case?

[CaffeKnight]

This is almost certainly a newbie sort of question, but I am considering using the Montech AIR 100 ARGB case due to liking its aesthetics, cost, and reviews. (Link to case: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/wvmmP6/montech-air-100-argb-microatx-mid-tower-case-air-100-argb-white

 

The problem is it doesn't have USB C on the front I/O. My question is will I be able to access the USB C header on the motherboard (https://pcpartpicker.com/product/qcbRsY/asrock-b650m-pro-rs-wifi-micro-atx-am5-motherboard-b650m-pro-rs-wifi) at all if I use this case? Would I have to mod the case to do so? Or can I simply access it on the back of the case?

 

  Thank you so much for your help.

if you can reach any of the other ports on the board then you can reach the usb c port as well.

also keep in mind you can just get a usb c hub

In addition to what @emosun said, hte "frntpanel" hasnt got usb C, only 2x USB A 3.x and one 2.x USB A ... So if you want to have USB C your mainboard need to have it on the back IO.

If you plan to add USB C port to the front IO then most likely some kind of modding will be needed.

 

If you plan to add USB C port to the back (mounted on PCIE bracket), then no modding will be needed, UNLESS you have all the PCIE bracket covered by other parts.

 

Whether or not the cable that comes with whichever option you pick can reach the header, that depends on the product you buy. They should list the cable length which you can use to estimate whether it will reach or not.
