i have an Asus Z170-A ATX LGA1151 Motherboard and it only has 4 usb ports on it and then i have two on my case so a total of six, all four usb's in the back are being taken by keyboard(blackwidow chroma 2x) mouse (deathadder 1x) and mousepad(firefly 1x), leaving two on my case for other things, i have an amazon usb port thats powered but i cannot connect most things to it without it needed more power(usb powered mixer for my xlr mic). I kno u can buy pcie cards that have usb ports on it, so im just wondering what the best one would be for my situation? if u need more info on what im connecting just let me kno, i would like a card with four on it if it could power a mixer and webcam at the same time, even two pcie cards would be fine

Pcie ports are a good solution for more rear usb ports. If you have any extra headers on your motherboard you could also get a 5.25 or 3.5 inch bay that has some usb ports on it, like this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811996039&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Controllers+%2F+Panels+-+etc.-_-N82E16811996039&gclid=CP-p9snxuc4CFQMmhgodZ3EB9Q&gclsrc=aw.ds
