For VR headsets and other bandwidth-intensive devices, what's the best USB hub to ensure smooth performance and minimal latency? Are there specific USB standards or data transfer rates I should prioritize? How important is the connection type (USB-A vs. USB-C) for VR applications? What are some recommended hubs that have proven to be effective with VR headsets and other devices requiring high bandwidth? What are your experiences and recommendations?
For VR, prioritize a powered USB hub with USB 3.1 Gen 2 or Thunderbolt 4 for optimal bandwidth. Thunderbolt 4 docks offer the best performance. USB-C is generally preferred for newer VR headsets. While specific hub recommendations are tricky due to evolving hardware, ensure the hub and your PC's ports support sufficient speeds for your headset. VR performance can be intensive, so a dedicated port is often ideal. Check your headset's requirements and user reviews for compatible hubs.
