I don't like USB C as a rule, because while some will point to the specs alleging a much longer life span, it's nowhere near as sturdy as the old fashioned USB A plugs & sockets that still dominate PC hardware. That was drilled home as I just replaced the I/O panel for this PC's 1 1/2 year old case because the USB C socket was physically broken. I've been relying on USB since its beginning, and have never had a plug or socket failure till now. And I was lucky -- being able to buy individual parts for a PC case is rare. Doing a quick Google, problems with USB C sockets & plugs are not, the moral being, whenever possible use a hub you can leave connected -- if the hub's socket gets damaged it's Much easier to replace.
Finding a hub itself can be a problem with USB C -- almost all of the hubs you'll find are for laptops, designed to charge the laptop through the connecting USB C cable, while the hub's ports are usually USB A, HDMI, and *maybe* a single USB C port. The few hubs without all of that, just USB C ports, are cheaper, but so is their build quality -- the 1st one I bought was defective -- and good luck finding one if you want to use an adapter to power stuff like a connected drive. Just finding a good data -- not charging -- cable can be a challenge.
So why bother? USB Gen 2 can allow data transfer at more than twice the speed, but while it can work just fine using an USB A connection, stuff that can work at that speed almost always uses USB C. It's common for motherboards to include fast USB ports in both type A & C, but connecting the case's USB port, or a single USB socket to the Gen 2 plug on the motherboard itself often offers faster speeds, e.g. on this AMD board the rear plug uses an additional chipset, while the plug on the motherboard uses the CPU, which is faster by 1/3. Either solution, using a separate plug or the case's I/O, means using USB C -- I couldn't find & have never seen anything USB A Gen 2 that plugs into the motherboard. You can buy a Gen 2 cable that plugs into a USB A Gen 2 port at the rear of the motherboard, & then uses USB C at the other end, though a good one is relatively expensive. And there are Gen 2 USB C to A & A to C adapters, but they often have a catch... USB C uses special circuitry so it doesn't matter which way you insert the plug, but cables, hubs, and particularly those adapters may only work plugged in one way, or the data transfer speed may be cut dramatically if the C end is plugged in one way rather than the other [having the plug work either way adds cost].
Finally, almost everything regarding USB C can be confusing... start with the USB naming, e.g. USB 3.1 became USB 3.2 just because they updated the specs, and both are backwards compatible, so a USB C connector can be present & used with a USB 2, 3, or 3.1/3.2 device, though marketing always features USB C as the latest & fastest tech. Charging cables can be either passive or active, and can have different power ratings, while USB C allegedly OTG cables [to connect to a cell phone or tablet] may or may not be -- the OTG part may or may not work. And as above, there's a difference between changing & data cables. If the device supports it, some USB C cables work to connect to another monitor [instead of using an HDMI cable], and some devices & cables let you daisy chain monitors, but what works & what doesn't isn't 100% consistent, or reliable. About all you can do, unfortunately, is test whatever you buy, and make sure wherever you buy it accepts returns.
