    This reminds me that the car I bought has one Type-A jack for connecting Android Auto and rest are Type-C. I need to get some cables.

    is there not a fricking usb a on the entire thing? What do they think we have, USB C mice?

    Dongles and Adaptors the shit out if the back. Making an even worse Rat’s nest, then you have ever seen.

    bunch of usb-c, double ethernet, frigging spdif yet not a single video port? I don’t mean the damned thunderbolt

  5. KebabGud

    I mean this is what i hope we end up with. but its far too soon.

    and i expect Type-A will live on for decades more in the same way PS/2 did/does

  6. I mean, some one has to push the change for change to happen. It is the time to change to usb-c and I hope we start to see more mobos like this one. Devices will follow. Transition periods will always be pita…

    Aside from the outrage of all those USB C ports and not a single USB A in sight, kinda interesting to see a dual port nic and 5G 10G no less

    LOL what a meme.

    Realistically I’m okay with this sort of IO, I use docks/hubs anyway. A single one of these ports breaking out into a 10-port hub for all of my peripherals is easier for me to handle

  9. I don’t have a single device that is type C and plugs into my motherboard and the peripherals I use are only a year or two old. What is the point of this? To use peripherals made for smartphones?

    At least it has 10Gb Ethernet, that’s a win.

  11. Mr_Chaos_Theory

    Wait what seriously?

    No joke thought this was someones photoshop.

  12. “Backwards compatibility? What’s that?”

  13. This is eventually gonna be every motherboard, and most tech will switch to USB-C. I think this mobo is quite a bit ahead of that time so it’ll be annoying for now, but some day that’ll be the norm on every PC

  14. To be fair almost every new product I see is USB C.

    Depends on when you got peripherals and where but most mice are still usb a. Keyboards tend to split as there are some that have a simple usb or usb c port and you plug what you want. Anything that uses a wireless dongle tends to be usb a.

    But I get the point of a type c as it allows more current and more ports.

    Only this is a few years early as peripherals haven’t caught up fully .

  17. 1 type-a is pretty much needed. There are a lot of new products that use type-a in 2024

    What I hate most about type-C is that it’s physically weaker connection, like, every type-c plug I’ve had feels like its gonna fall out under the lightest wind.

  19. ParanoidalRaindrop

    Sooooo where does the keyboard go?

  20. Homicidal_Pingu

    There’s 2 TB ports you can just get a dock and not bother with the rear IO

  21. I remember a couple years back a company I work for issued me a USB-C only macbook. The trouble? All the company accessories were USB-A and they didn’t get me any kind of converter.

  22. sarmstrong1961

    Can’t even plug in the keyboard….

  23. jackspicer1

    what?! How am I supposed to connect my non Type-C wired mouse and keyboard?! I don’t like wireless because of the need for batteries.

  24. bedwars_player

    I mean, honestly id be down for that lol, get some splitters on each of those with some extension cables

  25. Its about time!

    Need that in a itx form without all the useless ram and pcie slots

  26. Berlin_GBD

    Good. We’re not gonna move on to universal type-C usage if type-A is easily accessible

  27. Muhamed_95

    People have to be forced to switch to another port. It’s not a pleasure but it has to be done. You can buy USB-C to everything cheap nowadays so it shouldn’t be a big deal

  28. awkwrrdd

    Am I crazy to have durability concerns about usb c ports? I feel like the connection is so much less mechanically secure than a or b simply due to not inserting as far into the port physically.

  29. XxToasterFucker69xX

    don’t buy it, if you don’t like type c just find another mother board, there are tons of other options
