Gigabyte lists USB controller drivers on each motherboard's support page, covering the chipset ports and any extra controllers fitted to that board. Since board layouts differ, the matched package is the one for your specific Gigabyte model and revision. Find it by looking up your board on Gigabyte's support site and installing the USB package it lists.

Worth knowing: USB controller drivers listed on your specific Gigabyte board's support page.
DriverHub US does not host driver files or bundle an updater. This page documents the Gigabyte Motherboard USB Controller Packagefamily; its citations are selected from the package-source policy recorded for this family.
The family record names Gigabyte page by board model and revision as the package source. Match the package to the exact Gigabyte Motherboard USB Controller Package device signals on this page and to Windows 10, Windows 11. A family name alone is not enough when the publisher separates packages by model, hardware revision, or PC configuration.

Intel
This is the integrated xHCI host controller that runs the USB 3.x ports on Intel-based systems, handling high-speed data and device enumeration. It normally arrives as part of the platform chipset package rather than as a standalone download, and on a laptop or prebuilt the OEM chipset build is the matched version. Windows can drive it generically, but the vendor build resolves the occasional high-speed link or power-state quirk.
Intel
Intel's Thunderbolt controller and its control software together manage the tunneling of PCIe and display traffic over a Thunderbolt port, plus the security approval of connected devices. Because Thunderbolt is bound to system firmware and power management, the build validated by your computer maker for that exact model is the dependable one. A generic driver frequently leaves a dock only partly functional.
Intel
The USB4 Connection Manager is the host software that negotiates and manages USB4 links on supported Intel platforms under Windows 11, coordinating data, display, and power over the connector. Like Thunderbolt, USB4 depends on platform firmware, so laptop and prebuilt owners should use the OEM build matched to their model. It governs how a single USB-C port juggles high-speed data alongside video and charging.
AMD
This is the USB 3.x host controller on AMD platforms, driving the high-speed ports wired to the processor or chipset. It is delivered inside the AMD chipset software rather than as a separate file, so installing or updating the chipset package is how you keep it current. Windows will run these ports generically, but the AMD build addresses power and charging behavior on supported boards.
AMD
This component of the AMD chipset software fine-tunes USB behavior and enables fast charging over supported ports on AMD boards. It is not a standalone item but part of the broader chipset package, so it installs and updates with it. If a port charges slowly or a device behaves oddly on power, having the current chipset software in place is the first thing to confirm.
ASUS
Many motherboards add extra USB ports through an ASMedia host controller separate from the chipset, so those ports need the board vendor's ASMedia driver rather than the platform package. On ASUS boards this driver is listed with the other USB downloads for a specific model and revision. If a subset of a board's ports fails while others work, an unmatched ASMedia driver is a common cause.
