MSI just puts red on everything above usb 2.0
Uhhh…..
Why mine is orange?
Type A is easily top 3 USB’s
just give us working usb 2.0 everywhere and nobody will ever complain.
maybe a couple of blues for higher speed file transfer and we're done.
What about Orange
Huawei puts purple in their high speed chargers, im shure its on the usbc but not that certain if they also put it on the usba
What about type c colors
That explains why red is there. I gotta rearrange some ports
Why razer have green USB port
Just using Noctua brown USB ports. System just runs better that way.
My pc case has black usb 3 ports
That green and purple look like the PS2 mouse and keyboard old style plugs. Maybe that’s what they’re trying to mimic, purple USB for wired keyboard and green USB for wired mouse 🤷♂️
If I have an Astro A50, I have to connect it on the red one?
By the way, just so you people know, only some manufacturers actually even bother following these color schemes. Some only have the little icons and such etc. so don't get blindsided by that.
Yes, I did. Talk to you later.
Not everyone follows the colour scheme..Most Lenovo ThinkCentre Micro paints all USB in black
Now we need an orange port to surrender all our income to LTT /s
Damn I though black was 1.0, blue was 2.0 and red 3. Makes sense now 🤣
I have a usb to usb-c orange coded lol
Bruh mines are shiny silver
The colors are more like recomendations, since there are plenty of black USB 3 or other random colors, just because that color fits better with a design or a color theme
Green and purple are for nostalgia of PS2 socket.
Colors were never part of the spec, mere suggestions
My Laptop is black USB with SS 5
did you know usb ports suck? only port i've had to use wd40 on
what about orange???
"I know how we can mess with people. Let's make usb ports, but make them the same color as ps2 ports."
Green and Purple is most likely heritage related.
Remember the color of the old Keyboard and Mice plugs? 😉😊
The rule breaker try to make it look like PS2?
I still can't remember which of the green and purple PS/2 ports do
Some laptop mix black with usb 3.0 it becomes confusing which one is which
Ohh thats why my usb dongle be acting up sometimes on usb 2.0 thinking it was 5.0
This is where placebo effect is so real 😂 I always thought the red ports actually worked faster so your telling me I’ll get better dps with my mouse in the teal blue ports 😅 game changer literally
Never seen a usb-a port past black
If you get the ones that glow in the dark, they make your ram faster
I didn't even know about teal…
Where is the orange usb?
Wait USB type A still exists ?
My rule-breaker NZXT chassis: 👁️👄👁️
I have a teal and it keeps my headphones light on also the mousepad
Maybe but usually colors don’t make sense as well as USB speed naming. I have USB hub that is 10Gbps and it is regular blue, not that lighter one. Besides many laptops are done with colors and make USB ports black. Colors just look silly and don’t fit to overall look.
