I notice the site keeps reminding me about specific USB requirements. It seems they’re expecting all USB connections to use USB 3.0, or at least a compatible port type.

It might relate to power needs. USB2.0 supports up to 2.5W at 500mA, while USB 3.0 offers 4.5W at 900mA, and USB 3.0 Type C can reach 15W with 3A. The keyboard's controller could use USB2.0, but it requires the higher power of USB 3.0 to operate correctly. If it functions, you don't need to be concerned. The device will automatically select the suitable USB standard.

All USB-C connections should support USB 3.2 unless otherwise noted. The reason for the specification isn’t clear, but it might be necessary for power consumption related to RGB lighting. USB2 offers 2.5 watts (up to 500mA at 5 volts) per port, while USB3.1 can reach up to 15 watts (5 volts at 3 amps or 3000 milliamps).

You're unsure about choosing between Intel USB and AsMedia. It depends on your needs—Intel USB is often used for gaming and performance, while AsMedia focuses on audio quality. To decide, check your device requirements and what you prioritize: speed or sound clarity.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't make any difference which one you use for your keyboard. Don't try to troubleshoot when there's no troubles

The Intel ports offer lower latency than the ASMedia ports. Because ASMedia is a secondary component, it goes through more steps. I think the gap should be almost insignificant. You can check your USB Device Tree to see which port is active.

I could confirm it using lab tools only – @nelska, this won’t reduce your fracture count, right?

So I believe the optimal choice would be connecting them via the Intel 3.0 ports, including both the keyboard and mouse. The 2.0 model should work too. Probably just a matter of power delivery configuration. I think I’ll stick with the 3.1 ports since those are essentially an afterthought, but that’s a bit of a workaround. I’m pretty sure the top two slots are reserved for the mouse and keyboard. It’s kind of obsessed with everything being in ports 1 or 2, but here they’re actually 7 and 8. I’m hoping I didn’t reverse the setup somehow. Just kidding, maybe. But wait—check this out: it lists a USB root hub 3.0, but the ports are black? On the back I remember seeing 2.0 ports, not 3.0. The other 3.0 units don’t have any indication of 2.0, yet the motherboard claims it has two 2.0 ports and a 4.3 3.0 port. I’m completely confused here. Lol, I’m running out of steam.

I located the manual and seemed to insert a Wi-Fi card into the USB 2 port, which is meant for additional USB connections on the front of the case. That likely caused the unknown devices to appear. I also have an open JFP2 port that isn’t in use, intended for power lights and similar devices. It might be better to replace them to avoid this confusion. EDIT: This whole issue started because the Wi-Fi card wasn’t properly installed with drivers. Sorry everyone.
