Asus B350-f BIOS acting out

napstericious

Hello guys.
As the title states, my bios is acting out.
Ever since I've updated to the latest version, which supports 3rd gen Ryzen, my bios has been acting out. When I press deleted to enter bios, I get a message "Input not support."
It doesn't say "supported" but "support". After couple of tries I managed to enter my bios. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it wouldn't. It's completely random.
I've gotten the RAM I purchased and sent back for testing because they weren't working properly on my motherboard, so just to be on the safe side, and rule the faulty modules possibility out I've sent them to be tested, even though they are not on the motherboard's qvl nor is my motherboard on memory's supported list.
Once I plugged these RAM modules into my PC, my PC would boot normally but if I try to enter the bios I would get "Input not support" approximately 9 out of 10 times. I've taken the motherboard battery out and reset the bios to default, and managed somehow to enter the bios.

But weird things don't end there.
At first, when I tried just setting my CPU to 3.6GHz, with AUTO voltage, it wouldn't save the "overclock", even though my CPU's factory boost speed is 3.7GHz.

I'm using Ryzen 7 1700 with the stock cooler. So I just want it to constantly run on 3.6GHz and that's not too much to ask. 
It would still run at 3GHz flat. I've restarted my computer and tried several times but OC wouldn't stay there. Multiplier would stay at 36 but the clock would remain at 3000MHz.
Once I set the CPU voltage to manual and set the voltage to 1.3V it saved the OC. That is all with the new RAM modules. G.Skill Trident Z RGB 3200MHz CL16 GTZRX (ryzen compatible ones).
RAM stays and runs perfectly stable at 3200MHz now, but what bugs me is that I often get that "Input not support." when trying to enter bios.

When I switch back to my old RAM modules, Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000MHz CL15, I don't have the problem with the overclock staying with the AUTO voltage on CPU, but I would still sometimes have the same problem with "Input not support.", but not as often as with G.Skill modules.


Any help would be much appreciated. I'm running 4801 BIOS version.
Asus b350-f motherboard
Ryzen 7 1700 with stock cooler at 3.6GHz
G.Skill Trident Z RGB 3200MHz CL16 GTZRX
GTX1050Ti connected to a FullHD monitor via DVI cable, because my monitor doesn't have HDMI.
It's an IPS AOC panel that runs at 6ms response rate, 60Hz

Thank you all for your time and help.
Best Regards,
Alex

Honestly, I would wait until after the Zen 2/Ryzen 3000 launch to be updating BIOSes on older boards. With no Z2/R3K chips available yet, there's no way to test old boards and (ergo) no reason to update old boards. If you can, roll back to an older BIOS (I don't remember if ASUS lets you).

 

In the meantime, what is your keyboard model and connection type? Maybe there's an issue there?

I don't know whether I can downgrade the bios version. Also, ever since I've updated to the latest version, I'm able to run these RAM modules on 3200MHz, but before I couldn't.
I haven't though about keyboard being an issue here, but it does make some sense to some extent.
I'm using some "Genius" keyboard with RGB that is connected via USB 2.0, but it's been plugged into USB 3.1. Maybe that's the issue?

Thank you a lot for taking your time to try and help me out, AbydosOne. :)

Edit: I figured out one thing. When it shows "Input not support.", I've just unplugged the monitor from the PC and plugged it back in and voila, it shows BIOS. But i'm still wondering why is it happening and how can I stop it? Can it be because it's DVI and not HDMI? My GPU only has HDMI and DVI, monitor only has DVI and VGA =/

OH! For whatever reason, I thought it was the computer saying it didn't support the keyboard input, not the monitor saying it didn't support the video input. What is the native resolution of your monitor?

 

Some lower-end monitors can't scale every input their given, and will fail on weird ones, or if they don't get the signal right away.

FullHD is the native resolution. It's AOC I2280SW

What can I do to test this or better, get rid of the issue?
P.S. I apologize if the format of the link is not according to the rules. Correct me if I'm mistaken. Thank you.

When I turn my monitor off and turn it back on, it shows my bios, after that message “input not support”. Anyone knows what can be the issue?
