Hello everyone.
So today we have a weird issue o'mine. Let me tell you about it.
Don't know how it started, but now I have USB ports randomly disconnecting when there's any action applied to the PC, and reconnecting a few seconds after.
The only thing I can remember doing with PC in last two weeks (the problem is 2-4 weeks old) is cleaning it with pressurised air, not disassembling a thing except Video Card cable.
Devices won't disconnect when I'm watching videos, films, listening to music, but once I start to move mouse or play games or whatever - tada, mouse disconnects for 1-3 seconds.
My friends on Discord told me that sometimes even my USB mic goes silent when I have my mouse disconnected, but I haven't seen it in device manager. The only thing that's disappearing from there is mouse.
Also, fun fact, when this happening, PC itself goes wild, CPU and sometimes one of the drives goes crazy, I see anomalies in their usage in Task Manager, like sudden drops/rises, that are really off the median. If mouse disconnects while I'm in game there starts a heavy freezing-lagging shitshow for 5-15 seconds after each disconnect.
Tho mouse disconnects even when I'm in BIOS.
I must mention that theres approx 7 USB ports plugged on my PC, but there was no issue when there was 10+ plugged devices (and yep, I've tried to unplugging some of them to check if the issue was in them.
Now, for those who tried googling after reading the description, here's what I've already tried:
P.S. There was not a single disconnect while I was writing this topic, tho there was like 20-30 disconnects while I was doing my final self-lurking through internet for last hour or so.
P.S.S. If you think that one of the things I've already tried was tried in a wrong way - let me know, I will try to check it again. I'm going to sleep now cause I need some rest but I will gladly reply to you as soon as I'll wake up in the morning.

Now, for those who tried googling after reading the description, here's what I've already tried:
- USB Power settings for specific USB drives (unchecked the "Allow to disconnect device when power blah blah")
- Set power to high performance power setting
- Unchecked the "Allow disconnect USBs" in high performance settings enchanced settings
- Turned off gaming/oc mode on Video Card (well I believe I've done it, still not sure how to work with GPU Tweak II, but I'm in silent mode now, and also I've pressed Default button there. If there's another way to do it - let me know)
- Updated chipset
- Tried to plug mouse to USB 2.0, 3.1 V1 and 3.1 V2
- Tried troubleshooting via Windows
- Tried to turn off most of RGB lights, especially on Videocard and Memory sticks
- Checked if devices work correctly on other PC
- Detected which one of the devices in USB submenu in Device manager disappearing when disconnect appears and tried to delete the device/update driver
- Checked if device's cables are ok, not having issues even when I jiggle cables
- Updated mouse software
- Deleted mouse software
- Reinstalled mouse software
- Deleted keyboard software that was chained with mouse software
- Tried to plug in some high energy consuming devices like Wheel+Pedals+Gearbox and Airplane joystick (nothing happened, literally, and wheel n stuff was working well when mouse disconnects happened)
- Probably something else cause it started grinding me really hard 3 days ago and I've done a lot since then
