Plug USB 3.1 Gen 2 to non-USB-C motherboard
I've built a "gaming" computer, good perfs, but I did a small mistake : my case (Fractal design R6) have a USB-C port in front panel, but my motherboard (MSI Z370 Gaming Plus), don't have a USB 3.1 Gen 2 port ...
How can I plug him ? Is there any convertor ?
Thanks !

There are adapters to achieve what you want, but they are not simple, and definitely not cheap: https://www.moddiy.com/products/Motherboard-USB-3.0-Header-to-New-USB-3.1-Front-Panel-Header-Converter.html
Maybe even a separate usb3.1 gen2 pci express controller is a better bet (arround the same price, and likely faster), as stated on other answer.

Thanks for the answer ! BTW, the adapter is perfectly what I was looking for, and for the moment, the only PCIe card with header expansion slot i've found is more expensive :/

You will need to purchase a USB 3.1 Gen 2 PCIe card with a header expansion slot. Make sure it comes with a cable that is long enough to reach the connector on the case.
Here are some examples.
