What would you guys want to become standard on PC hardware?

[0s4x]

Yeah just one single plug. Similar looking to a USB 3 connector but for your front IO

This must happen!! Never have I wanted anything more than this.

• Magnetic dust filters.

Black PCBs.Right angled connectors on mobos.Affordable 4K monitor that is <25', <5ms with a decent stand and button layout. Wireless everything (at least for peripherals), cables fkin suck.Possibility for vertical GPU orientation.

Black pcb's

And built in WiFi on every board.

Better stock coolers.

[Quilamento]

Fan headers - you can never get enough 

[DrunkAssassin]

Multi-Colour components, like RAM there is set colours and you just buy the colour you want. You want a purple motherboard pcb with white heatsinks sure here you are, you want a orange GPU pcb sure. Why has no one implemented this even if it was just heatsinks this needs to happen because I am sick of having to pay extra for a good looking motherboard with the colours I want.

[Mister Snow]

Integrated Bluetooth or WiFi. And quantum CPU's ofc. 

[juretrn]

A way to combine power and video signal in one cable for monitors.

I agree with JJ from Asus when he was doing a video with TekSyndicate for Z97. He proposed a modular rear I/O. How great would that be to get rid of...let's say VGA or DVI on a motherboard? It's basically phoneblocks for motherboard I/O.

Yes that was a good idea and a good video too.

 

I want true Black PCBs and not slate grey or dark ash.

 

Motherboard vendors to stop following ASUS and give more variety,

 

Once something is sold it MUST work with other stuff.

[Sharif]

Buy one get one free GPU's

+1

[cubercaleb]

also headphone spliter build into laptops and cases

 

 

One million times this! I am so sick of messing around with headset stands I just want one on my case

That would make cases ugly, maybe for the gaming-centric ones, but not on every one, it would ruin aesthetics of stuff like the obsidian series cases from corsair.

 

Also look at this http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HH-10-Headphone-Holder/dp/B007TIV7IU

[frostin1990]

I really wish the GPU orientation would be so that the fans are facing upwards instead of down so that hot air can easily go up

[zombiepixel]

Well I'd say most computer towers have enough room to have the 20+4 pin coming at it from an angle but yeah I could see how that can be an issue. But again I'm meaning this from like premium MOBO perspective. Like 170ish+ in price. Where you are probably investing in a case that has decent cable management.

i agree but as a company you cant say "most computers" because they have to appeal and work with everyone not just custom builders but at home upgraders

[chicksoup]

having the front ports in one smaller and thinner connector or putting it behind the mobo

 

 

two OS's running simultaneously

[ruitti99]

White PCB options.

That would look pretty weird (Brown copper contacts and white PCB)

[Synthetic-Pulse]

That would look pretty weird (Brown copper contacts and white PCB)

 

It would not look weird at all, there are lots of current boards with silver and black contacts.

 

or even something like this

[StingBull]

A good wireless standard so that I can transfer files between my PC and phone, tablet, other PC, TV, refrigerator.. etc. without a wire.

[Filippus]

Alrighty let's see: 

A better angle for mobo connectors

Dust-filters (could at least be cheap ones, better than nothing.) 

Black PCBs

Sleeving

Bunkers for cases on frontpanel, like NZXT Bunker http://www.amazon.co.uk/NZXT-USB-Locking-Device-Bunker/dp/B004Q3RC9E

Why? GPU fans blow air into the cooler, therefore this logic is backwards, hot air would rise out from the card, then would get sucked right up into the gpu again.

 That's new to me

[3VIL_G3NIUS]

two OS's running simultaneously

Already possible with VMware ESXi. If you want it to be like 2 separate desktops with video outputs then use a Xeon cause they have VT-d, and then you can dedicate graphics cards (and other stuff) to the virtual machines. 

Now if you did this with one of those monitors that can display 2 inputs at once... Boom. Splitscreen gaming with a PC.

[LarsReviews]

Asus, MSI or EVGA should invite Linus, Hardware Canucks, Timmy Tech Tips, Jayz2cents and me to make an epic motherboard and call it the ''LinusCanucks2TechTimmywithJay'' Edition

[Swndlr]

What I wanna see:

1. 4k is as affordable as normal 1080p/1440p and we don't have the spend our life savings to have hardware to power it smoothly

2. Gaming laptops best be getting longer batteries in the next few generations of them

3. Lag is never a thing anymore (Ik its unrealistic but still)

4. Prices somehow drop on older generation products in the near future and these products can still be used to run games smoothly

5. idk

[fringie]

Products work as intended out of the box.. So many times I buy a product and it has some stupid design flaw that you don't notice until use. It's just a waste of time and money for both parties..

[JustTooDank]

Pre-installed standoffs.
