How awful Asrock motherboards are !£

I think you might be referring to the graphic design rather than the features of the BIOS. If not, please list the features you are missing.

I really like the classic, professional graphic design of the ASRock AM5 BIOS, and I hope it will not be changed.

I dont mean anything about graphic design.

I just mean bios options, features.

i.e.
Enabling/disabling M2 slots through bios is not possible.
Even bios of my laptop had such functionality.

I am not a bios expert but, I honestly can say that amount of menus and options available in the bios is much much less than other bioses i have seen. made in 2013 asus z87 motherboard had much more complex bios than this.

Another example, f12 key opens boot devices list. When i choose different storage from that list, that device becomes permanently main boot device. That menu must exist only for one time boot !? On the other hand when i choose the other storage device from that f12 menu, it doesnt become permanent boot storage. So, there is both inconsistency and unexpected behavior. PS: there is a vital difference between boot disk is, one is veracrypt encrypted, other one is standard windows.

One minor thing, version of PCI slot can not be chosen manually.

I just hope to return this motherboard for refund and buy another brand!

Obviously main point i need help is to make my rtx 5070 ti working on the that motherboard.
That was very clear request.

And when multiple OSs are installed on different M2 disk, disabling one M2, in order to prevent one OS from interfering with other OS or other disk is also very clear necessity.

It is very amateur way of pretending to be an ordinary user but actually being belong to Asrock company rofl.

I've read some PCIe Gen.5 issues with RTX 5000 series.
Supposedly, they released VBIOS to fix it, and it worked for some, but not others.
Latest beta BIOS from AsRock (3.20) should have a way to force the main PCIe slot to run in Gen.4 or Gen.3 mode. Try that and see if your 5070Ti comes to live.

No company is perfect, but I've been very happy with AsRock motherboards.
I built lots of AsRock motherboard based systems. 10 AM4 boards, one of which is AsRockRack) and 1 AsRock AM5 board.

I study them to know how they're configured and their limitations, before I buy.
No company makes the perfect board for any particular individual, so I have to work around some bits here and there, but AsRock has always come through for the important bits for me, such as ECC memory support.

Now, AsRockRack, on the other hand, hasn't been very good with their BIOS support. But then, I know of a different company with way worse support. I probably shouldn't say which one. I'll just say it's all about the FRAME of mind on how we WORK on things.

I don't think this forum is run by AsRock company, although it is using their web address. People who post here are just regular people. I sure don't work for AsRock.
