    [SOLVED] Will a Z270H and an i5-6600k work with Windows 7 w/o USB issues?

    As stated in the title, will an ASUS Strixz Z270H motherboard work with Windows 7 (with an i5-6600k CPU) without any USB issues (and if so, is it mere USB 3.0 driver issues)? Don't bother telling me to upgrade, etc etc, atm Windows 7 is the only OS in question.
