Subject: Basic question on UEFI first time set up

Guys,

I'm getting ready to build a new machine, my first with UEFI. System specifics: B550 Phantom Gaming 4, Ryzen 5 3600, 16GB Crucial Ballistix DDR4-3200 16 GB kit, WD Blue SN550 NVMe m.2 1TB, AMD RX 560 4GB video card.

So, here's my question. I've reviewed the manual, and am pretty clear on how to set up the EUFI. I know the manual is not all encompassing, and the one thing I don't see is how to set the date and time. Is that something that's so basic the manual passes over it, or is it one of those "secret settings" that you have to dig for?

In the BIOS days (no such thing as UEFI when I built my last machine) the time and date settings were the first thing you encountered. Is that so in EUFI set ups?

TIA,

Jeff

RLGL, thanks for your post on that "other" forum. I've been a long time member of that forum. New to the ASRock forum. This is my first ASRock board after a string of successful Gigabyte installs. Just couldn't pass up the feature set on the B550 Phantom Gaming 4.
