Need new MoBo !

Tysonator · 2 Dec 2021 at 14:25

Hi all,

I currently own a ASUS TUF Z270 Mkii DDR4 ATX which only boots to BIOS as there is a problem. I have changed the battery twice and I think it is more hardware based.

So I have had for apx 4-5 years so I thought it is about time for an upgrade, which is a socket 1151

Which MoBo would be a good upgrade for gaming and video / photo rendering are my main uses ! ?

many thanks

T

Is there any led lights showing on the motherboard ?

no lights, no beeps, and when I do get to desk top via F1, in BIOS saving and exit the clock in desk top bottom right is always wrong on first boot up. If I do a restart the clock is correct !
I do not understand this as it appears the MoBo battery is the issue !
