Hey Everyone!
So I just got a VR headset (Quest 3) and bought the oculus USBC cable to go along with it. My motherboard doesn't have multiple USBC ports so I was think about installing a PCIE USBC card.
Would it be a waste of time/money to go this rout? I was also wondering if this would give the VR headset a little more power?

A card I had in mind was the 4X 5Gbps USB-C Ports PCI Express

Do you need more than one ?

It is possible that your motherboard has limited usb-c power output, but that card is 2A by port and some motherboard usb-c can deliver 30 watt....

I have the ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero X570 ATX Motherboard.
Interesting that you bring that up, whenever i plug my Quest 3 into one of the USBC ports I receive a message ""Charing at a low rate"
