Hello there,
I recently started getting into PC upgrading on my own, which is a lot of fun! I now wanted to add USB3.0 to my OMEN 30L PC. Does anyone have expierence with that and maybe suggest me a good card to use?

The backplane of your Omen desktop PC using the Oasis motherboard already has two USB Type-C ports.
You can add a PCIe x4 USB 3.0 card to increase the number of USB 3.0 Type-C ports.
Performing the upgrade is quite simple.
I have had good success in the past with Digitus and Startech cards. The URL is a PC hardware store that is regional for you in Austria.
