Have you noticed that the digital products around you have gradually popularized the USB-C interface, especially the notebook, Portable storage device, USB flash disk and other devices that have requirements for data transmission speed have fully adopted the USB-C interface. The desktop PC, as a personal information terminal, has been equipped with a USB-C interface on the motherboard, but it is not convenient to plug and unplug in the rear, so naturally the demand for the USB-C interface has begun to appear on the computer chassis, and the front interface is more convenient to use. The editor conducted an inventory of several popular USB C interface computer cases on the market to see which products are available.

Firstly, it is customary to enter the small white question and answer session:

Q: Can I transfer data to a computer by buying a USB C interface chassis?

Answer: The USB C interface on the front of the chassis is only a physical interface and does not have a communication chip. It needs to be connected to the USB C expansion slot on the motherboard through a cable for use. If your motherboard does not have a front I/O expansion slot corresponding to USB C, then the chassis cannot use USB C data transmission function.

Q: Can the USB C interface of the chassis be charged externally?

Answer: Generally speaking, the USB C interface power supply of the chassis comes from the external power supply of the motherboard, and the power supply standard generally does not exceed 5V3A. Although it can be charged, the speed is not fast. So some manufacturers will adopt another method of not using the motherboard for power supply, but using the chassis ATX power supply, which can output high-power PD and is convenient for fast charging, but does not support data transmission function.
