There’s nothing wrong with my old PC case, except I’d like some USB-Cs in the front panel.

The panel itself is unfortunately integrated, but it’s possible to get additional front panels to 3.5" and 5.25" slots (the ones traditionally used for CDs etc). Here’s one example from akasa with at least one USB-C: https://akasa.co.uk/search.php?seed=AK-ICR-36

It’s perfectly fine if I have to just disconnect the integrated USB-A ports due to lack of motherboard connectors. They suck anyway.

So, please share recommendations for such devices. Let’s not let those old cases go to waste!

    I didn’t quite follow what the problem is. In my case, for example, I can remove a front panel cover to reveal an empty bay, and install a new device into that bay

    immediate edit Is the question ive asked literally what you are saying - “Instead of wasting an old case, you can get devices to add new functionality instead” ?
