I haven't seen anything either.  Might be best to open a ticket with support to get an exact spec.  No idea if full hi-speed charging will be supported, but you never know.

I'll just plug it in and see I guess.  Made the mistake of using free newegg shipping on a 4 pack of memory instead of shoprunner on 2 x 2 packs of the same memory.  Now I'm sitting on a completed new build with no memory while I wait for it to arrive.  :o

On desktop PC's, they often charge at full power when the machine is on, and at a lower power with the system is off, if the port remains hot and on/off charging is supported.  I would imagine it is.  Please post your results.

For the search engines. I forgot about this post I made:

the usb-c port on the back of these mb's will rapid charge your phone when the machine is on or off.  so in other words, awesome.
