Hello everyone, I just bought an S88 Mk3... how do I connect it to the PC?

Let me explain: I don't know if the USB ports on the motherboard support both data and power with the same cable supplied. I'm attaching an image of the rear panel (4 USB Blue and 2 USB Aqua Green), Motherboard: Asustek tuf z390-plus gaming

Alternatively, what do you recommend for power?

    Due to it's age - that motherboard will not power a MKIII due to a lack of a USB-C port.

    You will need to do this:

    Use the adapter to connect the provided USB-C cable from the keyboard’s HOST port to your computer’s USB-A port. (any of your blue ports will be fine)

    Then connect a USB-C power supply (5V, 7.5W or higher, 1.5A or higher) to the keyboard’s USB-C power supply port.
