@HeX @KungFuSpaghetti thanks both. Guess ties in nicely with crimbo and the 3600 can be a present to me

Hi VoG
I'm assembling my Asrock Z370 Extreme 4 board and from your post it appears that you know exactly where the CMOS jumpers are
Darned if I can see what the Motherboard Layout diagram in the Quick Installation Guide shows as CMOS with/without jumper shorting cap.
My board has two doodads in the right place but with labels printed with "P1 80" covering the doodads. If there are pins for the jumper caps- I can't see them.
Help? !

Your in luck as im currently changing cases, excuse the god awful picture quality, the cmos clear jumper is bottom left corner next to the 9 audio pins.
Hi VoG
Thanks for the info. I've been looking at something else, in the lower right area below the M2 shortest nuts.
Another question ( as you're the Man!), is there not meant to be a supplied shorting cap? My previous MSI and Biostar mobos were so provisioned.
If not, how is the shorting/ reset applied? A paper-clip or screwdriver blade or ??
Thanks, in advance.

Ace!!
I've found a cap on the Biostar that is the right size.
I wish the Asrock instructions were as informative and detailed like Biostars. It's specs on, specs off, specs - heck, where did I just put them
.Just measured the spacing. As near as dammit, a 2.8mm Lucar female electrical connector fits. Just crimp it onto something stiff and then be able to reset from a comfortable distance.
I got some Soundpeats Truefree+ ear buds for my birthday and thought I'd try them out on my X370 Taichi. I have installed the drivers and can get them to pair but the sound just constantly breaks up. First time I've tried bluetooth with this board, installed the latest drivers as well. Does anyone use bluetooth with this board?

yes I do .. sounds not a problem even up stairs but using bose .. and the intel driver ..BT_20.120.2_64_Win7
I'm using the Intel BT_21.60.0_64_Win10 drivers which are the latest ones but it still breaks up. If I move my head around I can get a clear signal but it only last for a couple of seconds and then it breaks up again. The buds work fine on my tablet and I can walk around the house with the tablet downstairs.
Hate to admit it but had a severe PEBKAC moment! I've had this board for several years now and never used the bluetooth or wifi, I didn't even know it had antenna until I started looking for a solution to the sound breakup. I installed the antenna on the board and now it's all working fine. Once again with anything in IT always check the simplest things first 
It'll work, it's just the newer BIOS probably isn't optimised for the older CPU's, it'll be setup to make the most out of the Zen2 architecture.
PinnaclePI-AM4_1.0.0.6 is still the best for Zen/Zen+ (BIOS 5.10).
