I was wondering if this would create any problems?

No, hubs are fully supported. The only thing I can think of as a problem is some motherboards are picks about keyboards and the bios, but you don't use the bios other than setting it up, so you should be fine.

will be totally fine. just note that you are connecting bunch of devices through one port on the PC side, so everything together will have a max transfer rate of 5Gbps. this only matters if you want to transfer info fast from two USB sticks at the same time, but it's still something to be mindful of. other than that, it will work like a charm.

 

make sure you get a powered USB hub though, because RGB keyboards take lots of electricity

This is why I have an old usb keyboard under my desk out of sight, because my dam corsair keyboard wont enter the bios, works fine when in the bios...
