Please answer this. If the results are alarming I am going to alert MSI about possible wide spread options.

So I have seen a few people with MSI motherboards as well as myself who have had USB devices plugged into said MSI Motherboards randomly shut off. It is not a power delivery issue because that has been ruled out by maxing maximum drawing power of the ports. Please answer this poll.

Yes, this was a few years ago for me but I have seen some more people with this issue recently that peaked my interest in the topic again. I had decided after a while to get a new mobo and CPU, I kept all my peripherals. I decided to test the new CPU in the old mobo, still had issues, tested new mobo on old CPU, it didn't happen. Of course new mobo and cpu together worked fine. After that motherboard I have not gone back to MSI, but that's not necessarily because of this issue, just liked the other options. Also, the issue was not it disconnecting just one device it was all the devices plugged into the motherboard.
