    I apologize in advance if my wording was not exact.

    [SOLVED] Am I reaching a limit on things connected by USB?

    thank you all for your answers, I will try to obtain a powered hub and see if it can help, I forgot to mention that 3 of the razer peripherals (mouse, keyboard, and mouse mat) were connected to a USB 3.0 port with an Anker 4-port USB "non-powered" hub, it could be that the power draw there was...
