Title: USB Extensions/HUB for keybaord?
Post by: torhsn on Sat, 06 April 2019, 02:50:50
I might be in the wrong section, if so I apologize. I'm now up to 3 keyboards (soon 5) and I want to swap between them. Was thinking some sort of extension or hub mounted towards the back edge of my desk would be perfect but I worry that it could introduce lag or anything like that, is that a valid concern? I'm almost thinking about making a DIY extension box sine i'd also want one for PS2 since I have a Model M I like to break out every once in a while.

Most out right extensions with bases are angled straight up, i'd need it to point forward.

A simple hub will not add any noticeable lag, unless you're into competitive gaming in the top 0.1%.
