I have that motherboard, but I have not used USB3 on it. I have used USB3 via this card: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BB7TVMO and this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006K25AX4 On two separate laptops ... with no problems with either. I would recommend that you have the latest firmware for the motherboard: http://bit.ly/1njpc2Y The last 2 BIOS updates are for USB ... the most recent one less than 2 weeks ago (Version 2501, 2014.05.14) Thanks, Johnny Hughes
