I just built a new PC, and I'm having trouble with a couple of things. After a clean reinstall of the drivers and adjusting various settings in the BIOS and Aura, I'm still stuck. My monitors take a long time to boot up when more than one is connected, and I can't seem to find the right fix for the USB ports being powered all the time. I've used 3m long, 1.4 displayport certified cables for the monitors, but while one monitor works fine, the system is sluggish with multiple ones. Has anyone experienced similar issues or know of a solution?

It sounds like you might be dealing with a boot order issue. When multiple monitors are connected, the system may struggle to detect them all during startup, causing delays. Try switching the primary display in the BIOS or only connecting the monitors you need during boot-up.
Regarding the USB power issue, it's possible you have settings enabled for USB ports to stay powered on for easier access. Check your BIOS for settings related to USB power management and disable any options that keep it on all the time.
Great suggestion! I’ll dive into the BIOS again and see if I can find those settings.
That makes sense! I might even try connecting them one at a time to see if there's a specific one causing the hang-up.
