Superb Micro-ATX motherboard - to not charge devices via USB while the computer is asleep

When I bought this motherboard to build my gaming computer, it seemed that it was all Had features I wanted: compact form factor, easy overclocking capability, PCIe 4.0 readiness when 11th Gen Intel processors come out, Bluetooth and WiFi functionality, front USB 3 support, and addressable RGB ports. The motherboard I forgot to check if the motherboard supports USB charging when the computer is in sleep mode so that wireless devices can be charged when the computer is not in use. I couldn't find a BIOS setting that controls this feature (thought the Wake-up from USB feature does, but it doesn't), so I contacted MSI support about this. does not support this function. So if that feature isn't your thing then have fun - this is a great little motherboard that works really well. All the features on this little motherboard work pretty well and it was pretty easy to set up.
