Hi,
I am some kind of ASUS-fan boy, but I'm starting to feel much strongly that the love from ASUS is fading - or does not exist at all....
I upgraded my GPU from a GTX1080 to a RTX4070 TI SUPER to be able to fly Flightsim on a 4K Samsung monitor.
The first thing I noticed was that when my Samsung TV-monitor was on (at 120HZ), the computer freezed for 90 seconds. The computer freezed the same way if I started my Samsung monitor when the computer was on (at 120HZ). It did not make a difference. I did not have that problem with the GTX1080 like this. It worked like a charm. When I turned the refresh rate down to 60HZ or below it worked whithout a problem, no freezing.
I thought that maybe I had to update the BIOS for my mother board, which I hadn't done since the Z590-F GAMING was new.
It did not help.
What it did was that I loosed my bluetooth... Suddenly I did not have bluetooth any more. It was all gone in my computer. I had to dig out an old keyboard with at cable and mouse such a like.
I googled but did not find any solutions that worked. Until I came across a teenager, that said that he did shut down hiscomputer, pulled out the power cable and hold the power on button for 30 seconds.
Off course i laughed..!
Then I tried. And it worked...
Really, Asus, what kind of clowns is working with the BIOS-updates at your company? Is this acceptable? If the update has to clear any CMOS or such alike, why does it not?
Now I have another problem: I can not connect with my Universal Apollo X6 thunderbolt soundcard, which is connected to the computer with a Asus ThunderboltEX 3. I have done all I can, it does not work. I. Can. Not. Use. My. Recording. Studio. It did work like a charm with the old graphic card and the earlier BIOS.
The computers device manager says it's there, but I can not use it as an output. You should be happy that this is not what I earn my livelihood by, right now.
Again; I WAS an Asus fanboy... You have to step up in this game and - at least do the obious. If I cant work with an ASUS MB, an ASUS TB-card and an ASUS RTX4070 TI Super - why should I still be an ASUS fan boy?.
Regards,
Michael
