5 meter USB 3.1 cable for game controller?

#1

I’m looking for a 5 meter USB 3.1 cable that will be good enough for using on my Xbox controller for FPS gaming (so, no lag if poss).

Does such a thing exist?

Couldn’t you use a long micro usb cable right?

Well, I think so, but I don’t actually know much about cables and I don;t know if I’d get input lag from using a ‘normal’ cable. So really I’m hoping someone can tell me what I need :slight_smile:

Got I use to just use a long micro usb. For the length though you would have to shop Amazon probably. Anker does have a 10 ft cord though that’s good.

3 meters is about the limit where transfer speeds will be an issue. If you are gaming and want the fastest possible speeds I would be wary of anything over this as you will lose precious response time.
