Super helpful thank you.

[@toonnut1]

Great video thanks

[@rong.5004]

If you can't find a setting in the bios, there is a search function at the top on the right side of the bios from the start/Easy page.. It is a great feature and comes in handy when looking for a particular setting.

I couldn't figure out why my XMP was disabled. Then I realized I just had your video maximized. Smoking pot and BIOS videos don't mix. DOAH!

🍻Japp 😂

[@Hari-Neto]

Thank you!

[@Solo_01]

Thanks for the review. In Advanced mode, under Boot tab, you can increase mouse cursor speed.

[@Aggressive_Splooge]

Thank God.

[@Tara-cu7nc]

Thank you

[@jackburton5085]

Really helpfull thanks. Anyway. On the Z790 Gaming X if you are in a submenu, by pressing ESC, you can return to the previous menu. Same on Bios version F7 and F11b

The XMP booster - Micron, Hynix, Samsung. I'm not knowledgeable about RAM sticks, so what if one has G.Skill, Corsair, etc.? Are all the 'other' brands made by the three mentioned earlier in the list? I'm doing a new build (this mobo's on the list of stuff) and planning on using 32G G.Skill 8000. What would the best setting for that be? Just XMP 1 or...? Any assistance is appreciated!

[@IAMLXM0]

The mouse speed is in the Boot screen :) set it to 4x

[@Sebastian4216663]

If I have two 16GB sticks do I pick 16GB or 32GB in the XMP booster list?

[@kevinnguyen5362]

Hey I just got this mobo however for some reason my PCi 5 fast slot is not posting on all my GPU I even update the bios, i tried installing rtx 4070 galax, it is not the gpu as it boots up on my slower lower pci 4 slot, is it a setting in the bios for m2 nvme ssd? I have a samsung 990 should work please help out here do i need to enable raid ?

[@zbf]

I have z790 ae ddr4 and there is no a lot of options and a couldn't change BCLK as well. My BCLK=99.75mhz , and for example i have 4980mhz instead 5000mhz (CPU/ram). Gigabyte downgrade z790/b760/b660 and etc for Russian? Maybe i can activate debug mode for hidden options or where can i download full bios except official website? Thx a lot.

[@GGEZOscar]

Hi, do i need to update BIOS for 14th gen?

[@tomaszplaneta]

I connected the m2 port near the processor(m2a), but it does not detect it. You have it in the m2p port, have you tried inserting the hdd drive into the m2a port? I red also on reddit that some people connecting to another port than near cpu like You did. Is this m2a broken or something on this motherbords?

[@adriancioroianu1704]

How do you disable PerfDrive? Because i don't see any option for it and it overrides any manual tweaks i try to do in the BIOS. Everytime i restart the PC, it defaults to one or those PerfDrive options instead of sticking to my manual tweaks and as a consequence i have to do manual tweaks from another software in windows every single time. wtf PS: i'm talking about a z790 board.

[@Jarrahfe]

Where's CPU long/short limit and iccmax settings?

[@Edog1337]

Ethernet with Intel i225 drivers is bugged and doesnt work

[@avdt]

how can i know if i have the 1.0 or 1.1

[@Khungersumit]

having Z790, 3 G.skills DDR5 sticks 16,32 and 16GB (slots used 12,4) not able to enable XMP. currently running at speed of 4000MHZ

[@phillamoore157]

This is my 2nd Gigabyte build, and for whatever reason this has gone horrribly. I'm using the Z790 Aorus Pro X, and I've got two M.2 drives installed (and an SATA SSD), that are recognized in the Peripherals section, but won't show in the Boot options to select them for the boot sequence. I've completed the build, and trying to get Windows 11 loaded, and stuck at trying to get the boot sequence. Very odd, and I'm not sure what to do at this point

[@lalodexmax]

tengo el mismo problema

[@user-ew3ye7lv2m]

Hello I have a problem the quality on the bios is so bad I don’t understand why I have the same bios u use but why mine is to bad! The photos on your bios looks great! Mine is bad why?

[@waynedaley6079]

does the Z790 Aorus Elite X wifi7 Rev.1.0 need a bios update when purchased to support an i7-14700K CPU? What version is the bios that is currently shipped with this board?

[@MuhammadKashanNasir]

any answer to your question?

[@waynedaley6079]

@@MuhammadKashanNasir I did the build and did NOT need to update the bios , it came with bios version F3

[@tora5522]

Do we need to flash our bios first for 14700k to work on this motherboard ? Im planning to buy this

[@thinkcomputers1]

More than likely yes

[@mateoharmiss5830]

One question is there a way to permanently turn off the RGB on the motherboard forever ? Thanks

[@soukai]

Yes, on boot led turn it to off, and maybe you'll need to turn it to disabled on the gigabyte led utility in windows.

[@AndyDreadFPV]

isn't there a way to disable/enable wifi on these bios? I remember disabling wifi in the bios on my x670 Elite AX when i got it then updated the bios and now i can't find the setting in the bios to re-enable it. a real head scratcher. And in the OS when i type ip link set dev wlp15s0 up i get "Operation not possible due to RF-kill"

[@rong.5004]

There is a search function at the top right of the bios menu. I'ld search for "wifi" and if it's in there it will show up.

[@AndyDreadFPV]

@@rong.5004 Thanks. I did a search but didnt find it. I was able to force it on from linux with the rfkill command...very strange that it was there with the version of the BIOS that board was shipped with but then gone after I upgraded the bios to the latest version.

[@bemutatoktesztek4163]

raid 0 how ? 2 m.2 drive?

[@captaincobb8146]

You didn't cover M.2 SSDs and how to turn them on in Bios

[@valmirpushka6186]

If you have find how to add a ssd can you show me how and where ?

[@captaincobb8146]

@@valmirpushka6186 Ya got to turn on M.2 in Bios. All motherboards are different. Call support.

Can you turn off the Aorus LED logo?

[@willroberts2773]

Wake on lan? Does it have it?

[@_Mehiko_3249]

Yes, leave erp disable

[@samwise5493]

Hey any idea how to do WOL on this bios?

[@soapyclown]

Ever figure this out?

[@_Mehiko_3249]

leave erp disable and do the rest of the settings and it will work@@soapyclown

[@soapyclown]

@@_Mehiko_3249 Had ERP disabled by default. Everything is at default and tried F4 and F5 bios, still nothing - got all the windows settings enabled including “Wake on Magic Packet from S5” and still nothing. I can WOL from sleep but not from a shutdown. I can see my Ethernet Port blinking orange but seems to not want to work :(. Edit: turned out it’s a windows setting screwing this up: fast startup that needed to be disabled.

[@_Mehiko_3249]

weird, idk what to say to help you, i have z690 aorus elite d4 with f29 bios and with load defaults wol works, i only set the port on router and in control panel all the power management options enabled and on advanced everything is related to wol enabled, my ethernet port on shutdown is completely off both leds, you can try another app or try with erp enabled, or first enable platform power management and enable all 3 subsettings@@soapyclown

[@samwise5493]

it was fast start up for me also.@@soapyclown

[@keponen331]

on my asus the mouse gets super fast, bios are weird

[@customcarsfordba2481]

A video on bios, but all he does is speak about the obvious. Did not or could not even explain all the settings in easy mode. Complained that the mouse movement was to slow, he didn`t even notice the setting in the boot tab that allows to increase mouse speed from 1 to 4 (4 being the fastest setting) his setting was on 1 (the slowest setting). If you do a video on a specific topic, make sure you know more about it than your average joe blow !!!
