Hi all,

I am looking for a mainboard that supports Wake Up by USB keyboard or mouse.

Do any of these motherboards support this feature with a current bios version?

1) ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0
2) ASRock B450M Pro4 R2.0
3) ASRock B550M-HDV

I know it from my Asrock B450 Pro4, it is not noted in the manual, but with one bios the USB wake up event was shipped.

Thank you
 
pretty much any mainboard supports it, and by default it should be set for OS to decide on wake up events
but what you need to look for in bios is to keep USB powered while PC is turned off, since youre picking up asrock, then its easier to look for it

set deep sleep to disabled and that will keep usb power while PC is off, if you have enabled in windows your USB device (keyboard/mouse) to wake up your PC, then it would wake it up once you move mouse/press keyboard button
