No I’ve not touched anything yet, I updated the bios to the lates tho looks at the gamer nexus etc video I’m not sure I should’ve. Not even gotten around to installing windows tho I’ve been meaning to

Not sure if it’s the same for the b650e-e gaming wireless but on the x670e $700 board they tested it hadn’t fully fixed the issue that kills the cpu & motherboard(the voltage isn’t as high as it was on the older bios but it’s still above the voltage that AMD recommends), also updating to the bioes that are supposed to fix the issue voids the warranty as they’re beta not final version.

Asus has backed down over beta bios warranty in the last couple of days , the void warranty has been removed from the bios statement apparently.

For now If your unsure I wouldn't enable expo or xmp until the issue is resolved.

Nice,

This is basically exactly what I'm planning on building. Just waiting for it to come.
2 questions, where did you plug the lian li argb into the mobo? Is there 2 connections at the bottom - the manual for the mobo indicated that to me.
Also the gpu cables, do you think you could have mounted them over the top of the gfx card and then bend them in because apparently they can be reversed and this is what I was thinking.

Looking on the bios page it does look like they’ve removed the bit about the warranty

Not sure on the gpu cable but as for the argb there are three 5v and a 12v connector, one 5v and the 12v top of the motherboard above the ram slots and the remaining two 5v at the bottom of the motherboard. I plugged the argb from the gpu into the one at the top and the Lian Li controller boxes into the two at the bottom.

Perfect,

Exactly what I thought I had to do, I'm gonna follow the same layout.

This is going to be my first pc for 13 years and my first ever build! Waiting for it to be shipped, can't wait

Well it’s here, I wasn’t expecting it till like Tuesday.

What did you need this for?

The motherboard only has two USB 2.0 headers and I needed three, I didn’t realise it when I was originally planning the build only when I saw a video that was recommended to me on YouTube. The AIO and the two Lian Li controller boxes each needed one.

Ohhh no.

I have a rgb fan which is going to be the same, isn't there another addressable channel at the top or did you need another for the fans?

Edit:
Is the aura sync useless then unless I have an Asus component?
For some reason I just assumed the gfx card wouldn't need another cable

Trying to install windows but stuck on

gazref · 16 May 2023 at 16:44

Onboard WiFi on your mobo? Try disabling that, in bios if you have to

Brizzles · 16 May 2023 at 18:15

Skip it.

Google ' how to skip internet connection when installing windows 11'

Use the command prompt method - 1st result.

“Let's connect you to a network” page, use the “Shift + F10” keyboard shortcut. In Command Prompt, type the OOBE\BYPASSNRO command to bypass network requirements on Windows 11 and press Enter

I had to do the same - same mobo as you.

Then activate when you are online.

Thanks will do, I did see that before I posted but wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something obvious before I followed the steps.

There might of been a way, but i didn't want to hang around, so i just skipped it.

It wasn't something obvious though, so you're not alone

Thanks I’ve got windows installed and I think all the drivers, have installed the softwares for the Lian Li and the NZXT argb.
Still need to sort out the cable mess at the back.

P.s didn’t realise the motherboard has Bluetooth as it doesn’t say in the info about the motherboard anywhere that I’ve seen but there is driver for it on Asus site so I’ve installed it, don’t really have anything to use with it but good to have I guess.

fowler002 · 17 May 2023 at 02:31

Just ran a couple of 3dmark benchmarks, don’t have port royal or the ultra version of time spy(just the “standard”).

Any idea about the error message regarding the invalid score?

Dreadi · 17 May 2023 at 22:34

Only time I've seen invalid scores is when I've pushed an oc too hard and flaked the test out.

Have you got expo off as well? CPU score is too low
