…and still only two PCIe slots. Do you remember when you could slot four cards into your mainboard without going to a “Pro” or HEDT platform? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

It sounds to me that it's really targeted for music production and like, where you have a whole bunch of interfaces to connect like pads, keyboards, mixers, etc. In that case you don't really need a lot of PCIe slots. We don't really use PCIe for audio interfaces anymore since USB has gotten so fast.

VR sim racing. So, so many USB devices.

Oh yeah, good call. Or Star Citizen / MSFS sim pits.
