I forgot to mention, this motherboard has a TYPE C power on the rear and a connection on the motherboard for a front port. If you want to use both of those ports you will want to disable/delete one of the USB 2 PORTS. Another hint to get over on the 15 port limit, just buy a 10 port powered hub it will only count which port you use on your motherboard. I use security keys (4 thumb drives) just to be able to use DAW software and this was my fix.
HS port is one
SS port is one
add them all up the in USBMAP kext for a total of 15 so if you use a 10 port external USB 3.0 self powered hub connected to USB 3.0 that has both HS and SS that is counted 2 ports if you enabled both in USBMAP kext, it will not even count the external ports on the hub. Best secret ever!!!
HS = High Speed
SS= Super Speed
Best bet, use the TEAL Blue ports for SS, Blue Ports as HS & SS and the Black USB 2 ports as just HS. You won't get SS speeds from USB 2 ports. Since there are only two USB 2 ports, use them for your mouse & keyboard.
If you need more help just ask, it took me a few days to understand USBMAPPING but it's very simple. I am use to DSDT but now Opencore is very confusing on what is needed and what is not. The way I see it, why not just use all SSDT and the DSDT that is compiled!!
