Hello, your system is experiencing issues with date and time changes upon startup. It seems the CMOS battery might be failing. Please check the motherboard documentation or contact support for the correct replacement part for your AMD Threadripper 1950x on the Gigabyte X399-AORUS-Gaming-7 board.

For future checks, the battery dimensions are listed on the back. It should be visible without taking it off. I’m a bit concerned about a potential battery problem because the PSU standby 5V power also helps maintain the RTC/BIOS settings. Unless you disconnect the wall power or face an outage, your BIOS configuration should remain unchanged even if the battery fails. However, it’s a cheap test you can try, so it’s worth attempting.
