I just bought a new PC, based on Lenovo Legion gaming desktop. It comes with 2 USB port in the front, 4 regular USB port in the back + 1 USB-C port. That’s a total of 7 USB slots.

It’s been like 2 decades that every possible hardware device comes with an USB interface. Keyboard, mouse, joystick, hard-drive, memory stick, headset, webcam, spot/photo camera, and many others.

Of course it’s my fault, I should have thought about USB connectors when shopping for a new PC and check before buying. but seriously, 7 USB slots is so few compared to all the device I have using USB

    Worst part is, you can’t even really find a USB c hub that’s just USB c. Bunch of other shit you don’t need because everything uses A or C. I just want like 5 USB c ports and I’ll be happy. I updated everything I own to USB C, and I never have enough ports.

        I have genuinely no idea how any of that works. I’m a monkey with a smart phone. I just want to be able to connect all my shit. Lol. I have a mouse, keyboard, external drive, et cetera. I ended up getting Bluetooth mouse and keyboard, but I prefer my USB keyboard much more.

          Usually there’s a bottleneck at the CPU level for how many full speed USB-C you can have.

      For PC, get a usbC pcie card. Lots of choice there. Possible issues with GPU clearance/ heat though.
