USB 3 Type C Front Panel Suggestions?

[jh2020]

I want to add a front panel USB C to my computer (5.25" slot).  Does anyone have a suggestion?  I've seen some that use a USB 3 connector to the motherboard, but my mobo only has one USB 3 input, and it's currently used for the two USB 3 Type A ports on my case.  Is there any way to add a front panel USB C other than the USB 3 connector on the mobo?  I know there are PCIe cards, but I would really like the USB C ports to be on the front.  Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

You could get a 5.25" bay that has both USB Type C and USB type A ports.

The only issue with this is that this would make the case USB ports not work.

You can get pci cards that have either or both ports and headers.

AH! I hadn't even thought of that.  Any suggestions for PCIe card with USB 3 header? Also, still looking for suggestions on a 5.25" front panel USB Type C.

I don't have any recommendations for ya but I've heard that Anker and Inateck are decent enough. I believe Gigabyte and Asus have some multi-purpose cards as well.

Just have a look on Amazon, Newegg, so on.
