Solution for USB on AMD Ryzen/x570 Motherboards

I had the same problem as many people on this forum with the USB ports resetting on my Aorus x570 Elite Wifi motherboard.

I seem to have found a workaround for my config without needing to change any settings in the BIOS ie pcie4->3 etc

I have the following config :

AMD Zen 3 Ryzen 3900x

Gigabyte Aorus x570 Elite Wifi Motherboard - My MB is on the F31q BIOS.

NVidia RTX 3090 

64GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000MHz DDR4

3 X NVMe PCIe4 SSDs (Corsair/Sabrent)

4 x SATA SSDs

1 x SATA 4TB HDD

1000W PSU

To fix it, I used the USP Tree app from here, run it and it shows which USB is plugged into which hub, and the type of the USB :

For the fix I moved the USBs around until my Oculus Rift S is on its own HUB. Now my USB config looks like this,  and I have not had any issues. 

If you notice the Oculus Rift S is on its own hub. I had to muck about quite a bit to get this config, as the USBs connections on the MB map to the ports below in a weird way.

Since doing this I have gone from seeing a USB reset every 20/30 minutes when using the Oculus to 0 resets in the last 4 days.

I hope this helps !!
