from what I've been seeing all "low" priced ones do but this one has the best reviews of them.
I currently have about $50 to spend that's why I was thinking that one.

Seems to be the only halfway decent choice without a panel window. The market for cases was healthier a decade ago.

You don't get much for your money now when it comes to cases.

There are 6 from the MB I/O, 4 are USB 3.1 gen. 1 and 2 are USB 2. Plus a bunch more via MB headers.

I think it should be plenty unless you leave everything plugged in and it doesn't sound like you do.

so with a case that'd be 8 minimum that'd be plenty for me.

no I currently have 1 free on the front of my desktop. I also have a 4 port hub that I use with my laptop.

Aye, I don't need many myself. A flight sim is the only time I've needed a lot at once.

They shouldn't draw too much and someone can use a powered hub if needed.

PSP Go battery and thumb stick arrived so I installed them, console is on a charger atm. One thing I forgot about this is that the phone socket had been removed too (it has a ribbon cable similar to the thumb stick), but I don't need it anyway :yawn:

I meant the flight sim as I assumed you use a flight stick that possibly uses more than one usb for power.
