Case/MoBo connection cunundrum

i have a case with lots of front panel plugs. (phanteks elite).
among those plugs there are 4 USB3.0 and 1 USB3.1 type-C.
on the inside i got 2 USB3.0 connections to plug to the MoBo and another plug that looks more like a mini sata instead of pins that acording to the sticker belongs to the 3.1 on the front.

the MoBo is Aorus Gaming 9 
i am guessing things havent changed yet and each "pin plug" that should go on the MoBo still connects to only 2 USB sockets at the front right?
so where exactly can i plug the 3.1 on the MoBo to get the full connection? does it even have the feature?

looking at the mobo website, you cant, but i guess youd have to use a usb 3.1 cable to connect to the rear i/o of the mobo and connect it that way?

can you show a photo of the CASE 3.1 connector?
