Can anyone recommend a good powered USB 3 hub for my computer?
I need to move my PC away from my desk so things like mouse and keyboard cables don't reach any more.
I was wondering if it would be reasonable to run a USB hub over to my desk and plug everything in there instead of in the back of the PC.
Also does anyone know if plugging mouse and keyboard into a hub when gaming would have any performance issues?
Cheers

I recently updated to a powered 7 Port USB 3.0 Hub from Amazon, (StarTech brand) cost $89 but life is so much easier.
No performance loss and I don't have the issues of poor connections I had when using an el-cheapo hub plus no more plugging cables into the back of the computer and trying to figure out which cable was which.
This looks just like what I was after. Thanks mate
2x long USB cables wouldn't do the trick? Wireless is next option but yes delays and I don't think a hub or cables would have any delay issues, probably any hub would do
