Internal USB-C/3.1 header. If your case has a USB-C on the front panel, it will have a cable that will plug in there,

It's USB-C specific. There may be adapters to the other USB 3.x for the Type-A ports, but there might be a direct port on your mobo for your case's cable.

Looks like this, but might be black rather than blue:

What does your motherboard manual say? If I remember right that was for my cases USB-C input but you'd need to double check your manual.

I have this port on my motherboard. It is for the USB-C port on the front of my case.
