What are the USB specs and connectivity like on the Gigabyte X570 AORUS ELITE?

The board relies heavily on USB 3.2 Gen 1 — six of the nine Type-A ports run at 5Gbps, which is fine for most peripherals. You only get two high-speed Gen 2 ports, plus a USB-C at 10Gbps and a 2.5GbE jack, with 7.1-channel audio rounding out a well-connected AM4 board.
