Oh, didn't knew that. Thanks! Smile

I know, I know. Smile  This was the same behaviour of my P965 motherboard (whe overclocking). But I haven't touched anything. All frequencies are (and will be) at default.

I've just finished assembling the following build:
  • ASRock H170M Pro4

  • Intel i3-6100

  • Crucial 8GB DDR4 CT8G4DFD8213

  • Samsung 850 EVO M2 MZ-N5E250BW

  • Be quiet! System Power B8 300W
No discrete VGA or other PCIe cards. Running everything at default, stock speeds, etc.

The system runs fine, boot the OS without problems and it's rock-solid.

BUT

If I unplug the system (ie if I turn the power suplly switch to off), at the first following start the system will power-on, fans spinning for about two or three seconds, then power-off and then power-on again on it's own this time booting regularly.

Seems like the fake boot of old P965 board when overclocked.

If I leave the system always connected, no problem at all.

What can it be? UEFI updated to 7.10.

Thanks for any suggestion.

Bye]]> Mon, 08 May 2017 04:49:58 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5086&PID=28692&title=h170m-pro4-fake-boot#28692
