USB Lighted Keyboard stays on when power off (SOLVED)
I have a new MSI case, Corsair power supply. When I power off, my keyboard stays lighted up, and some RGB lighting stays on inside case. I don't know why?

Re: USB Lighted Keyboard stays on when power off
Since the advent of "AT" motherboards (AT source), the computer does not shut down, even if you use the "on-off" button.
The computer stays in "stand by".
The power supply does not interrupt the power supply, it only reduces it.
The computer can be "turned on" by, for example, a phone call or a network call.
The computer will only turn off completely if we unplug the power plug from the outlet.
Note:
It is therefore recommended never to plug or unplug a ps2 (or older) keyboard while the computer is plugged into an electrical outlet. There is a risk of burning out the motherboard.

also, some usb ports are setup as "always on" so that it can supply charging power even with the computer turned off
