Dear all,
I have found this motherboard "Asus TUF Z370-PRO GAMING" used at a good price.
It seems from the specs that it has almost everything I need, and I guess it would be perfect as it's in the Buyer's guide list.


the only doubt I have is:
will the USB 3.1 gen 2 work on Catalina ?
The motherboard uses an asmedia controller as the chipset does not support 10gbps usb itself:

-ASMedia® USB 3.1 Gen 2 controller :
2 x USB 3.1 Gen 2 port(s) (2 at back panel, teal blue, Type-A)

Does anybody know or have the same board?
Or to have less problems is better to move to a Z390 board?

Many thanks

I don't expect that USB 3.1 to work in MacOS as it is not from the Intel chipset on the motherboard.
 
ok.
So if I want USB gen 2 to work without problems, I must buy a Z390 motherboard
