Please update us if the situation changes. I am very curious to see how your expansion card works long-term.

I had an old expansion card with two USB3 ports out the back, and a USB3 header internally that I used for my front-panel ports. I started experiencing boot/stability issues, so I disconnected the header to troubleshoot. No more problems, but now I can't use the front panel USB/SD ports.
I'm curious because I'm wondering if the Leap is what is causing my ports to fail or become unstable, or if it has something to do with ASRock boards. Like I said before, on multiple ASRock boards, I have run into trouble with USB3 headers.
I've been helping a member of the forum (thread here), and his problems have disappeared since he disconnected some of his USB devices. We're now trying to figure out whether the issue is with the devices he has, the ports on the board, or the header connections.
If there is an issue with ASRock boards and USB ports/headers, I think they need to be made aware of it.
