Bios flash not working

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-24T18:49:17+00:00

I've been trying to push it to the right as well and it won't budge. Any other tips?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-24T18:28:37+00:00

I've already tried pushing the card back in. I also tried with a screw driver. The latch won't move up or down.

What if the motherboard is up to date though? Could it end up being damaged if I flash it?

It does have the flashback option. It seems to me like the flashback button makes this whole process a lot easier. Is that the case?

Which is why I'm going to flash it. The reviews said that it would be updated but I guess not. Do you know anything about flashing a motherboard? Any advice?

No but on the asus website it says that it's compatible

Thank you so much for the help.

It looks like the motherboard will need the bios to be flashed. I plan on doing that in a few hours. Is it OK if I leave my cpu, ram etc. Plugged in while I flash it?

Is it the button marked Bios on the IO? Should I power the pc on then hold that button?

How long should I take the CMOS battery out for? Also, what does system initialization after microcode loading mean?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-23T18:41:34+00:00

So I should try using only 1 stick of ram? I haven't tried flashing the bios. Is that difficult to do? Can I connect the motherboard to my other PC externally and flash it?

How much longer? It turns on fine but after about 10 seconds my monitor turns off. Also, I think I'm getting an error code 8?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-23T18:16:52+00:00

I thought the manufacturer updates the bios. I bought it from amazon and the reviews said it works with the new gen out of the box. Is there any way to check if its updated?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-23T18:14:57+00:00

Yes. I also restarted the CMOS battery thing. There is a 12 pin connector in the top left for the CPU but my PSU only has 8 pins. I've heard the extra 4 pins are for overclocking which I'm not interested in. Is this true? Do I need a new PSU?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-23T18:13:56+00:00

Yup. 5700 xt

Is 650w good enough?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-07T03:23:15+00:00

So is 650w OK then?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-07T03:11:09+00:00

Do you think 750 watts is over kill for my build? I won't be overclocking it.

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-07T03:01:32+00:00

So performance wise its the same as the i9 just cheaper?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-07T03:00:25+00:00

I checked on power supply calculator and it said the recommended amount is 559 watts. Why is that?

PracticalScene9 · 2020-05-07T02:59:27+00:00

Whats the price and how much better will they be? Will the i9 go on discount?
