FYI, Intel boards can have USB issues as well, I have come across these similar types of issues on Intel and AMD.. I don't know what the heck happen with the USB spec, but different controllers revisions and depending on build dates, have incompatibility issues with USB 3.0 and up devices all over the place. Try using a kinect 2.0 on your PC.. lol suppose to be USB 3.0 but only works on a handful of USB 3.0 controllers due to strict spec requirements on power and throughput.

I just check the stats and I'm at rank 666 ---- LOL No matter what happens ... I'm a winner

At the start of the thread at the top, you will see that stats.

Actually, I'm surprised you didn't already know about these boards, before you even went. These things are super popular, and you shop on AliExpress so you think you would have ran across these items. They make SLI/Crossfire boards and duel socket boards. Start ordering and testing.... Download the Russian BIOS and start Overclocking your LGA 2011 CPUs too. Linus, you should look at these when you get a chance. There are some better boards out there, and pretty nice setups from Chinese reman/new motherboards Ali express X79 boards are my thing! I built 4 lga2011 X79 board builds from Ali Express for my Kids builds with 4 channel 32gb of RAM. I love this build. Prices with 1660ti when I bought there were cheap and Powerful. All my kids stream, and can stream at 1080p-60fps while playing games (fortnite 120fps Epic settings). They are happy, and I was impressed, and a little jealous as the performance for what I paid, was rivaling my 2600x w/2060 that I build for about $1000.
