GA-H87N-WIFI USB 3.0 hub showing as USB 2

[man0072]

I have GA-H87N-WIFI build that works almost perfect! One issue that I have is that my USB 3.0 hub is recognized as USB 2.0. I added a USB patch below with MaciASL for boosting the USB power. Also tried the Zenith432's GenericUSBXHCI.kext to enable USB 3.0 but that doesn't make any difference. The USB ports are working fine, except that they are in USB 2.0 mode and my iPad is not charging. Also my USB 3 HDD doesn't run on it's native speed. The USB 3.0 hub I am using has VIA VL812 Rev B1 chipset. Any ideas what to do next with the troubleshooting?

Hey man0072, you ever figure this out? I'm having the same problem with a GA-H97M-D3H... My hub has the same chipset as yours though I'm not sure if it is the B1 or B2 rev....

Nevermind, my hub was bad. I connected it to a Windows PC, and it only showed up as USB 2.0 there too. Got another one and all works fine. Frustrated because I assumed the cause had to be the hackintosh.... not so.
