First, the parts I'm using that I think could potentially be the cause:
EVGA Z20 Keyboard

Gigabyte X570 AORUS Master Motherboard

Ryzen 5900X

Windows 10

 

Keyboard is hard wired in. Occasionally while typing the RGB will shut off and the keyboard will stop responding. 9/10 times the keyboard will turn back on after 10 seconds and start working again. 1/10 times it will stay off until I unplug the USB cables from the motherboard and plug them back in. Occasionally while the PC is shut down I'll see my keyboard light up and flash once then turn back off. This has happened a few times while the PC was powered down. Usually in the middle of the night.

I contacted EVGA and they told me to plug it into a known good USB port. The thing is all the USB ports work, its just the keyboard will occasionally disconnect. I added more RAM about a month before this issue started happening, but no other parts have been moved/changed/removed/added/etc. It can go days, or even a week without an issue, then it happens out of the blue.

I'm at a loss as to what the cause could be or how to track it down. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
