TL;DR:
Does this diagram confirm that I could surely connect 7 video devices to this motherboard, as there are 7 pairs of USB3 ports?

I want to connect as many USB3.0 video devices (HD cameras and HD capture cards) to a single computer as a I can, and I noticed the Gigabyte GA-AX370-GAMING 5 motherboard.
It supports 10x USB 3 (Gen1, 5Gb/s) and 2x USB 3 (Gen2, 10Gb/s).

This diagram shows that 4x USB 3 (Gen1) are connected to the SOC, in pairs of 2.
It also shows that the other 6x USB 3 (Gen1) are connected to the chipset, in pairs of 2.
And it shows that the remaining 2x USB 3 (Gen2) are connected to the chipset as well, seperately.

Video devices use lots of bandwidth, so I probably can't put more than 1 on the same bus.
