  1. I was reading up on similar Posts where people with Asus z3xx or z5xx series boards too had cmos issues. One of them had a shop and came across a few of these boards pointing it out to a cmos controller issue. If that's the case then Asus had made some really shit boards.
  2. Yes, it updates only when the power is on. Did what you suggested and after power on the bios was once again reset, as if it's the first start
  3. I'll try to keep this as short as possible. Asus prime X370 pro bios keeps resetting every time i boot. Date and time stay stuck around the same time i turn off the power switch. So far I've tested 3 cmos batteries in 2 different systems. All 3 batteries work fine in another system but these same batteries have no effect on my x370 Pro. There is no clear CMOS button, the two pins for cmos clearing are open and not touching each other. No jumper either. Updated the bios to a new stable one and still having same issues. Could anyone please help? Ram: 12x8gb Teamgroup Vulcan 3200, CPU: 3600, 512gb Silicon power Nvme, Antec Egde 750w psu.
  4. I am as amused as much as I am confused. xD Is it possible for you to switch the monitors for some days with your friend? Use it for some time and if the same problem arises on your friend's pc, then you'd know for sure. Don't rush on deciding that it's your monitor. One of my friend just bought a new motherboard because he thought his ram slots weren't detecting ram but later ended up knowing that his ram was at fault. Use the port that works on the other system and you use a different monitor for some time. It'll be much better to test it rather than getting a new one directly.
  5. Well, if you've got the required hardware why don't you make a video of it. I mean you've got it researched pretty well. A couple more days into it and you'll know if it's actually possible or not. Depends on where you live and if there are shops out there who can help you with the smaller stuff like any chips which need to be replaced on the board or flashed seperately. It sure will be a costly one xD but it'll be fun.
  6. It is enough but make sure you calculate the sum of TDP of all the components and then match it to the psu watt. Consider a 1000W Psu running at 800W which is almost 80% of it's capacity. It's better to give as lesser load as possible to the PSU. If your power consumption is (sum of TDP of all components) is lesser than 80% of 550W then you're good to go. If you know that you are going to upgrade your GPU/CPU in 2 years or so, then make sure you get a higher one. There is hardly a huge difference between 550-600-650-700-750W Going for a semi or non modular is definitely a way to save money while getting a good psu
  7. Replying to both your queries here. If it's not your monitor then, it can be anyone from your gpu, psu or even ram for that matter. The best option is to take your system at his place. If the monitor is ruled out, Take out the following psu cables from from your friend's system: Motherboard, CPU, GPU and other sata if you've installed windows on the SSD. Plug it into your cpu and run heaven benchmark for some time. Considering that the cables are long enough I don't think you would need to remove all the other components out. If not, take out just the psu, swap it and test it. believe me when I say this, There is no way to find out unless you swap and test. GoodLuck. xD
  8. See if it boots without any ram installed in the system. Clear the CMOS.
  9. It depends on your definition of Manageable. If you want to have a quick snack while waiting then it's definitely manageable. If the external HDD is still in it's return period, return it a and get at least a SATA SSD as there is hardly a big price difference as it used to be couple of years ago. Running games off a external is never a good idea as it can get disconnected any time.
  10. What specs are you running? Have you tried using your monitor with your friend's pc and see if it still acts crazy?
  11. That is some top class action. People like these are the answers for various of our questions. Salute.
  12. 1. You'd have to make a custom BIOS (which isn't something even remotely as easy as making a custom android rom) 2. replace the chipset? I don't know how are you going to do that and take the risk with a top tier board in case it bricks. But still that's not possible. But I do like the concept of removable-swappable chipsets, but the manufactures won't do it. So let it stay a dream xD
  13. You forgot to mention your budget and country you live in. But even if you did mention it, I'd say wait for this shortage crisis to end and buy later this year when there are enough stocks. Prices on Newegg 2-3x of the original price. Use the oldie but goldie for now and keep patience as there are still the lower models form Nvidia and AMD to be released which can be a big game changer later in the year.
  14. Are those gpus running on an overclock profile? Screen tearing issues in game or without game can happen when the overclock/underclock is unstable. Just a few days ago my display had screen tearing issues when gpu was being used because I had set the power limit to -15% in MSI Afterburner. As soon as I set it to -10% the issue stopped. This issue will continue on any gpu if MSI or any such software is enabling such clocking profiles on it. And last to say, Yes The psu can be a reason for this as it might not be delivering enough power. Use a different psu if available as that would rule out many things. But first check the overclock/underclock settings
