![]() That is technically feasible, and it shouldn't cost all that much more, even with add-on chips. I want lots of USB 3.0 ports, and I want them in a fairly small case, and I still want to have a spare PCI-e slot (3 will be for the video card). I didn't need 12 USB 2.0 ports when I bought my current mobo, but I have gotten a lot of mileage out of them. I want it to have enough ports, on the motherboard, when I buy it (probably around Black Friday), to handle those needs. ![]() Should we also keep several USB 1.1 headers around, since those devices don't need 2.0? With new hardware, a single USB 2.0 header on the board will be enough-IE, a reversal of the current norm.īy the time USB 3.0 demand is high, my next computer will be a few years old. It runs at USB 2.0, or at 1.1, not using the extra pins. A card reader and standard front USB ports means needing 2 headers, right off the bat, whereas we're only getting 1.Įaglekeeper: USB 3 is just fine for mouse and keyboard. Insert_Nickname: being used for card readers as well is precisely why I want more 3.0 headers on the board. Worse yet, it's the full-sized high-end mobos that get more USB headers, rather than the smaller ones! I can understand a few devices need just 2.0/1.1, so having that header is fine, but all ports, and most of the onboard headers, should be 3.0, by now.
