I am using an Asus Crosshair VIII Hero with a 5900X processor, Asus ROG CH8 board, 4x16GB Gskill TridentZ 3600MHz RAM, EVGA RTX3070TI FTW3 and BeQuiet Straightpower 11 850W power supply. I recently upgraded from BIOS 4006 to the latest 4201. However, I’m experiencing an unusual issue—sometimes the computer won’t turn on when I try to start it. This only happens occasionally. For instance, if I shut down the PC in the evening and come home the next day, pressing the power button works fine, but turning it off and back on doesn’t get me going. When I disconnect the PSU, cut power, and reconnect, the system starts up. This wasn’t a problem with the older BIOS version. Anyone else have encountered this with the new BIOS (4201)?

Why not revisit the previous bios? Just set up 4006 and you're good to go...

I stick with the newest AGESA and X3D setup. With my 5900X I run AGESA 1203. The recent updates significantly reduce vcore, helping it stay cooler but also lowering boost performance a lot. The latest version tops out around 1.425, not 1.5 as some claim. That’s a bit disappointing.
