Hello, I am looking for a way to get USB3 over 20m (My PC is in another room across the hallway and I have the need for USB3 in the room where my monitors are) without chaining USB Hub's (as it is done for example in active USB cables as I had to find out sadly) I tried Thunderbolt with the corning cable with my ASUS ProArt Z690-Creator, but its just not working nearly reliable enough. I also tried 20m active cables, but best I found was one with 4 hubs chained in it, which limits me to 7/8 Usb Ports on the other end at best, 3 at worst. (I checked it with USB Device tree viewer) Thanks in advance.

I recently built a new system using the Antec DP 503 case. It comes with an ARGB and fan hub, along with three front 120mm fans. While creating fan curves to suit my preferences, I noticed that the additional fans directly connected to the motherboard (PWM Arctic PST) respond well. However, the four fans connected to the hub do not follow the curve. Additionally, the three included fans consistently run between 1000 RPM to 2100 RPM, regardless of the fan curve applied. I've tried using both the BIOS fan curve and fan control software, but with no success. The hub has a 4-pin PWM header connected to the motherboard, but the hub itself has 3-pin connections. any ideas how to fix this?

Hi, I'm in the process of building a new set. I'm building it on the ASUS ROG STRIX B550-A GAMING board. I need to connect 9 argb fans. I equipped myself with a cable separating into two argb connectors. I want to connect two argb/pwm hubs with sata power connectors to it. Is this supposed to work or will I damage anything by doing so? Help!!! ( Sorry for my English )

Hello everybody, I am now thing for a long time how to update my setup. My situation: Work Laptop: Lenovo T14 (Thunderbold 3 or 4) Desktop PC: GTX 970; I7 4770 Dual Monitor Setup (One is the Dell U2520D so I have already kind of a USB c Hub including daisy chaining another monitor) What I want to do: Update my desktop to either a Laptop or a more compact desktop like the dell Optiplex or something Get another monitor for triple monitor setup (likely two 1080 and one 4k) get a USB-C / Thunderbolt Hub that will support triple displays Switch between both Laptops by just switching one cable Current Issues I dont want to use DisplayLink as I dont want another software running in the background and I am not even sure if I have permission to install that on my work laptop As far as I understand Thunderbolt only supports dual monitors. (found a comment under the CalDigit Thunderbolt 4 dock). I would have expected triple monitors not beeing an issue when running at 1080p. Dont really get that? There are some Docks out there that claim to support triple monitors anyways (e.g. This one) and dont seem to use display link as well. Is that maybe due to DisplayportAlt running independent of Thunderbolt? What would happen if I would connect to a usbc Port withour Thunderbolt but with e.g. USB 3.2 2x2. Would Thunderbolt docks still work? Is the Dual display limitation still the same? So you can see I am quite confused. Up to now I thought I was quite fast at picking up these topics. But the whole Thunderbolt, USB and display port situation seems just to be a mess atm. So thank you for any help. I also happy for some dock/hub recommendations PS: If anybody knows a USB-C / Thunderbolt switch, I am also thankful for recommendations. Seems also quite a small market...

Hi, is it normal for the battery of my Galaxy tab s9 ultra to drain slowly, while being conected to a ugreen hub (100w pass) and my hub conected to a ugreen 65w charger and a hdmi 4k Tv (self powered). I would expect to charge the tablet since the tv is powered and I'm conected via the hub to a 65w charger and not many applications are running. -
Sorry is this is the wrong place to post. I'm looking for a USB-C hub that can do USB-C video out. In total, I need: 1 x USB-C power in. 2 x UBS-C power/video/data in/out. 2 x USB-A Not looking to break the bank, but any option would be greatly appreciated. EDIT: I'm looking to run USB-C power (100W) to a hub/dock, the hub/dock to my ROG Ally, and then a USB-C cable from my Ally to the DP in on my Lenovo Tab Extreme. I know, I'm an idiot, lol.

So I already have the parts for my first desktop build but it can't be connected to the internet yet. Would it work if I connect a usb multiplier with a wifi adapter in one of the ports via ethernet back to the mobo so I can get stable wired connection at all times? My wifi has a lot of ping. I tried a powerline for my laptop but it had to be reset once every 2 to 3 days which was a pain in the bum. moCA isn't an option, mesh adapter I haven't tried before but they're a bit pricey. I can't move the router an inch let alone lay cables all over the house. Any thoughts?

Hey so I am a bit stumpted on finding a hub for a specific use case. Maybe I am looking for a unicorn. I have a 2 monitor set up. I have my gaming pc and my work laptop. I am looking for a hub that would allow me to connect the monitors to it with display port cables. Then the laptop would be connected through USB C(if possible with charging) or HDMI and pc connected with display port. And of course looking for one that would allow me to switch input with a press of a button. Does that kind of hub exist and would it impact performance in any way?

I finally have a phone that can accept Qi charging; while I'm aware it's inefficient, it would be nice to be able to just set it on my desk and have it fill up without the wear on my charging port. However, the obvious options are either just extra desk clutter or lamps that won't fit on my desk in a spot where it will be comfortable to reach. I've found at least one option from Dell that is a USB hub and Qi charger, but it seems to be a specifically Dell focused product and seemingly has driver weirdness with Macs. Any other suggestions?

Are there any good thunderbolt hubs that only have USB ports? Ive been looking but I can only find docks with some USB and other things I dont really need.

So i arleady picked parts for a new pc, but im not sure about the fan and argb controller, will this controller be good enough for 5 argb fans and 1 normal, also im going to plug AIO fans into it, so will it be able to controll them differently from the rest of the fans? and if there is something wrong with this controller tell me if you have better options. also im buying the lianli 216 rgb, and it supposedly has a controller arleady, but i have no idea if its also for the rgb, and if it will have enough ports for all the fans.

As the post title says, my motherboard doesn't have native DP passthrough but I'm looking for any possible way to use my GPU with my thunderbolt hub. I have a CalDigit TS4 because I frequently swap between my laptop and PC, currently I have two cables running to each monitor and I manually swap between the inputs when I want to use either system. Anyone here have any ideas for getting this automated either via the thunderbolt hub or something while keeping use of the GPU? I've looked into using an Asus ThunderBoltEX 4 card, but the maximus XIII Hero doesn't have a TB_HEADER port on the board (or at least I couldn't find it in the manual). I haven't looked into other thunderbolt 4 cards yet, but I was going to go over to my local computer shop later today to see if they have anything that might work. I appreciate any ideas anyone here might have, this is my first time using thunderbolt accessories so I'm pretty fresh to this side of things. Thanks in advance! -

Hi, I got a 5120x1440 120hz 49' ultrawide monitor and want to connect it to my M1 macbook pro. Im looking for a USB Dock that supports the monitor at its max resolutions and frequency. A dock that also has a few usb 3.0's and usb-c's, supports charging via the dock and has SD card reader. Is there anyone that can recommend me one? Help is much appreciated. Thanks

I have this hub for the RGB UpHere fans but I lost the remote it came with. I read somewhere that the older hubs had a reset button for cycling the lighting modes manually and I am wondering if there are two points I can jump on this hub to do the same thing. If there is then I would like to add a button to cycle the modes. Attached is a picture from an older thread of the same fan hub I have now that someone else took. I couldn't take a pic of my hub but this one is identical. You can tell they were testing out a modification as well. Although the mod they are performing is different entirely. I have tried using other remotes for other RGB fans and lights to see if they will work but have had no luck. This is the PCB model: XQ-HCRF-10 There is more to the PCB model number but I had the most luck finding images of the PCB using this search entry. Here is a post referring to an older UpHere hub having a reset button:

Hey, Looking for advice to acheive this setep. Currently I have two spaces in my home, one for work laptop and one for personal/gaming. I want to merge into a mega desk setup. I need a hub that I can have my main desktop always plugged into, and another USB-C cable free to plug in a portabal device. And be able to toggle between the two devices, so basically like a KVM... As I have a Mac, DisplayLink technology is not really an option. The driver support is bad! Probably Apple's fault haha. Much rather native support like a simple USB Hub does. But from what have read, "Alt Mode"? is ok? I have done research, however I havent been sold on anything. Either not enogh product info, or uses DisplayLink. Work provided me with this -> https://www.wavlink.com/en_us/product/WL-UG69PD2_WL-UG69PD2_Pro.html Its fairly mediocer, half the time devices stop working after waking from sleep. And as it used DisplayLink, its a pain in the ass on Mac. Thats why I am after something more native. Just a Roided up USB-C hub basically with x2 device options I thought to make things easier, and broarden the options. I could have a Dock and KVM seperate. The USB-C output of the dock woult go into the KVM and the KVM would have x2 USB-C outputs. But I am not sure of that will start bringing in possible complication with all the passthrough. The device support is already a tall list haha. The list of peripherals USB-A KB / Mouse USB-A HeadSet USB-C WebCam DP 4k Monitor - It can go upto 144hz for gaming, but willing to hang up the cape and say goodbye to competitive FPS gaming if it means I can bring all me devices together. HDMI 1080p monitor x2 USB-C Drawing table/screen (optional) AUX Speaker (otpional) Optical cable (optional) boosts my headset quality but not required Spare USB input for randome things like game controller or thumb drive. (optional) USB-C 100w power passthrough for portable diveces (optional) Devices Battle Station - Windows Desktop Dev Laptop - Mac M1 Air Work Laptop - Lenovo Thinkpad Thanks

I just bought a lenovo thinkpad E15 gen3 It's a really good laptop , but has a major flaw : Only 1 USB C for both charging and data with no dedicated charging port , meaning if you're charging your device there's no other USB C port available I have a SSD external drive that I would like to use while charging. I've looked into hubs that has multiple USB C but they are very expensive and BULKY (with a lot of ports that i don't need) Basically I need a USB C hub with just 2 USB C out ports (can't find any anywhere) So i thought of this solution : Buy a USB C hub with just 4 USB A ports (simple small and very cheap) and then add 2 USB A to USB C adapters ! I don't know if this would work and if it won't fry my pc so I'm afraid to test for myself Any one has enough expertise to be sure if this is safe or not and if it will work at all ?

Im currently switching from my pc to a macbook as my daily driver as I no longer have time for gaming and im trying to figure out one issue. My current setup is a PC connected to a 144hz 1440p gaming monitor via DP (which can also run properly on HDMI 2.0 afaik) and a 4k 60 hz TV via HDMI and i would like to still use them with my mac (monitor for work and TV for media consumption) but the problem is M1 supports only one external display. So I would like to have a device that supports switching between target displays via a button most preferably built in to a thunderbolt/usbc hub. Do such hubs exist? I know i could just switch cables depending on which display I want to use but I would like to have the best possible solution to my problem. Ive also seen some KVM hubs but im not sure if this solves my issue or if im gonna overspend on hardware features Im not gonna use. I know things like Ugreen HDMI splitter exist but i would like to have it built in to my hub so that I dont have a cable mess on my desk. So if anyone has anything to recommend Id be glad to read through your suggestions. -
Hi, i have an Asus Tuf gaming F15 laptop with 2 nvme slots and without a hdd connector. I have a 2TB 2.5 HDD with all of my games in it but i was dissappointed when i didn't find a hdd connector in my laptop. in the other hand, there is a place inside the laptop for a 2.5 hdd but with no connector. My idea is : to add an internal usb hub to one of the usb ports (i have 3 ports) without losing that port fonctionality and then connect my hdd to a usb to sata adapter. I have found some people talking about soldering the usb hub to one of the laptop usb pins on the motherboard. Can someone provide me with a detailed tutorial for that. Thanks.

Hello everyone! First post here after reading a lo and not finding proper answers! First the machine specs: Laptop model: Asus 2021 ROG Zephyrus G15 - GA503QS model (https://rog.asus.com/laptops/rog-zephyrus/2021-rog-zephyrus-g15-series/helpdesk_bios) CPU: Ryzen 9 5900HS RAM: 32GB GPU: RTX 3080 8GB OS: Win 10 The issue: I do own several USB-C HUBs with mutliple outputs (HDMI, Ethernet, USB Type A, etc) none of them works with the existing USB-C ports of the machine. All drivers are updated and BIOS is also updated to last version. I am not able to plug either a screen or any USB device to the HUB that is connected to either of the two different USB-C ports that the laptop has. All the other USB ports and connections work perfectly fine. After some research I think I stumbled upon a the crappy mess of the new USB standards....The ports are supposed to be "USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C support DisplayPort™ / power delivery / G-SYNC" . All the Hubs that I have work fine with my other Intel machines, the one I have been using the most and I need on the new machine is this one (https://www.newegg.com/p/0J2-005J-00016) I do think there is an issue related to compatibility. I just grabbed this laptop for work on the go (currently squeezing UE5 in a AAA project) so having multiple screens, headphones, microphone, wacom cintiq, mouse, multiple gamepads connected at the same time is a must for me. I can handle it for a while connecting and disconnecting stuff around....but not ideal. Do you know of a good USB C that really works with USB3.2 Gen 2 Type-shutthefuckupwhyyoudothis?!??!?! protocol? Do you know for sure this isn't related to a poor usb implementation from AMD/ASUS side? I don't think is driver related, but did you have any driver issues related to this? Let me know If I there is already a similar topic on the forums, wasn't able to find it. Thanks for any help you can give me! -
Can you daisy chain 2 argb fans into a single port on an argb hub? I'm using 3 Deepcool CF120 Argb fans, a MSI Mag Coreliquid 240r and a single EZDIY-FAB ARGB fan on a Mag b560 tomohawk. The EZDIY-FAB fan is not compatible with the deepcool argb hub (has 4 fan ports) which came with the CF120 fans, so I'm planning to connect the EZDIY-FAB hub into one of the 2 argb headers on the motherboard and connect the other 5 fans via deepcool argb hub which would require me to daisy chain the 2 fans on the coreliquid 240r. Would this be a viable method?

So my bedroom gets unbearably hot while gaming and I've been planning on moving it into an adjacent room and run all the necessary cables through the drywall. Currently I have 2 Display ports (Valve Index + 1440p 144hz monitor) and a HDMI (1080, 60hz monitor) populating the IO on my MSI Gaming X TRIO 3080. My question is, is it possible to buy a thunderbolt PCIE card (Recommendations appreciated), install it into my MSI EDGE Gaming x570 MOBO and passthrough my GPU signal into a thunderbolt hub(Recommendations appreciated) that will sit on my desk? (approx 3m in cable length away) If so, what are the limitations in terms of bandwidth to my monitors and valve index as well as latency. would there be a perceivable latency difference? Would I also be able to connect 4+ USB peripherals into the same hub without problem? Ideally I would like to install a Dual USB C Thunderbolt wall plate on either side to make it as clean as possible. However, I am open to any suggestions as to how I may go about doing this without leaving a sizeable hole in both rooms. I appreciate any feedback in helping to solve this! :)

I have 3 parts in my build that have an argb connector, with only one argb header on my motherboard. I would like to have individual control of each item and not have them as one group, which from my understanding if you use a splitter cable, they will be grouped together. Does anyone know the solution?

I am looking for an USB hub with Card Reader, USB-A and USB-C connectors but as far as my searching go I found only the overpriced low-profile docks for laptops. I want it for my desktop pc on my ...well.. desk to have quick access to those 3 types of ports Anyone know about this kind of hub? Seems like there is not single one All are Full USB, or Card+USB-A but not all three.

Hi guys, i have a question I bought a WC with Pump + 3x Fans and a Kit with 3x Fans ARGB, both come with a HUB. My Motherboard have only 1 header for ARGB (B550m-Plus). The question is if i can connect a hub into another one, considering that only one hub do not handle 6x fans + Pump Here is what i got: Kit 3x Fans: LED Rated Current - 0.63A Kit 3x Fans (WC): Fan Rated Current - 0.15A Pump Rated Current - 0.2A And according to Motherboard doccumentantion, the header can get 3A max. The right way to know if i can put it all in that header is calculating (0.63 * 3) + (0.15 * 3) + 0.2?
