If your case has one or more USB ports on front/top, then it should come with a single cable to plug into the USB header (socket basically) on the motherboard. I think the mention of USB-C in the specs is irrelevant, as that's just the shape of the external port.
You could also connect the header to a USB PCIE card.

Thanks! My confusion is because this particular motherboard has the USB-C port at the front not at the back along with all the other ports, so I wasn’t sure how to get the USB-C working without additional parts.
But it seems a lot of the X570 motherboards have a USB-C port at the back, so I’ll probably just look for another one and maybe even get a cheaper case that doesn’t have a USB-C port.
Thanks again.
To be honest, in total, I only really need 2 DisplayPort / HDMI, 2 USB and 1 USB-C...
Another stupid question... (I really do need to have my PC built now...)
What does the below mean, it's on the specs on the X570 AORUS ELITE AMD motherboard.
1 x USB Type-C™ port with USB 3.2 Gen 2 support, available through the internal USB header
Do I need to get a case that has a USB-C port? Or if I have chosen a case that already has 1 USB-C port, do I need to get an extra USB header to make 2 USB-C ports?
Thanks
