Why do most PCs has a BIOS straight outta the 90s these days?

Just look, if you take a HP bought in 2016, its highly likely it will have a old style BIOS, why can't motherboard manufacturers make a new, modern, UEFI bios

?

Because it's not really worth their time developing a pretty BIOS setup menu for a system where most likely the person using it will never even see it.

most user buying prebuilt will never go into bios

The newer ASUS UEFI looks really nice on my laptop and both computers with newer ASUS boards, but then my ASRock board has a pretty aged looking UEFI. All depends on the manufacturer.

most enthusiast boards have nice looking uefi, and HP and Dell's business machines have very nice UEFI with mouse support.

 

but on consumer trash theres no need for that, consumers dont touch the bios 99% of the time anyway.

I liked the classic setup, it was simple yet full of options to configure particularly related to CPU control and overclocking, and the fan header control was better too. AMI and Award setups were the best imo.

 

new setups are just way too cluttered with junk

I agree with you, my Dell Latitude has a very good BIOS.
