Active usb hub- better?

Post by Randomguy007 » 27 Apr 2025, 16:55

Im wondering if an active usb hub can fix my floaty mouse and usb issues forever? Because I clearly experience usb power issues which result in floaty mouse, keyboard input lag and bad audio quality when using usb. Could that be the final solution for all of my problems?

Active usb hub is an usb hub with external power supply, meaning it wont get any power out of your usb ports on mainboard. Meaning youll get enough power.

Im buying one tomorrow anyway but I was asking if som1 even tested it because i saw nobody mentioning that.


Any keyboard and mainboard of msi I use, my keyboard NEVER gets on while boot, indicating a power Issue for usb

It won't be good, I tried it a few months ago, don't buy it, it's a waste of money.

you're asking if the active usb hub is good, someone gives you the feedback that it isn't, and your braindead ass asks for his rank instead of constructive feedback? lmao gg

silver 1 detected, opinion rejected lmao

I mean just try it out. Can send it back anytime I guess
but to act like the rank has anything to with it is a little bit silly
we're all in the same boat

and OP don't forget to update us on your findings
