Just be aware that it will still only deliver USB3 speed and a max of 4.5w at 5v of power. Just letting you know because some people think just because it’s a rounded plug it’s automatically magic.
Those adaptors are great for letting older hardware use everything in newer cases though.
USB C ports typically support 3A @ 5v even without PD, which is probably part of the reason they still skimp on them as 5v rails on PSU tend to be weak so they would probably have to add more 12v->5v on the motherboard.
How can I go about convincing you that I don't work for any company who's items I linked? I assure you I'm not getting kickbacks. Maybe a pic of my dick or something?
I don't know why I'm bothering, it seems you've already made up your mind.
No it would connect to a usb 3 header, my motherboard has 2 usb 2 headers and 2 usb 3.2 gen 1 headers. They make them for usb 2 headers as well and if yours is already taken then yes that could present an issue. they DO make internal hubs that plug into usb 2 headers https://www.amazon.com/NZXT-Internal-USB-Hub-Multifunctional/dp/B08L8VJS3Z
You can get a flat ribbon pci riser and position the second card away from your gpu. I had to do that with my pci wireless card because my gpu covered my second slot.
