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

    I have to think really hard about what I would do with 7 slots.

    This is roughly what is plugged to my PC

    • Keyboard,

    • Mouse

    • Headset

    • Joystick

    • Rudder pedals for flight sim (OK that one is a bit specific)

    • Audio interface (OK another one a bit specific)

    • Webcam (which isn’t even always on)

    • USB 2 wire to load/connect some devices

    • USB C loose wire to load/connect some device

    • USB stick/hard drive on a case by case basis

        Why use an audio interface when he can just use USB? Some people don’t give a fuck. Stop being such a snob ffs
