That is not necessarily true I'm afraid. It's possible, but the used connector is independent of the USB standard. For fast data transfer, you would need USB3.1, but the connector doesn't matter. For fast charging, you need the type C connector on both ends of the cable, because afaik the type A or 'standard' USB connector on PC's as you call it, is limited to 1.5 A.
So while you could use a USB type C to type A cable to charge a mobile device from your PC, it probably wouldn't charge any faster than an old micro usb type B to type A cable.
