Unusual screen appearance on the monitor during BIOS and Windows Advanced Options access?
So I just assembled a PC for a friend and everything functioned flawlessly on my end. When he brought it home, he needed to access BIOS, so I explained the process whenever he tried opening BIOS or Windows Advanced Options. His monitors showed a lot of white lines with numerous duplicates and extremely small text. It appears similar to this.
The motherboard is B650 Aorus Elite AX Rev 1.2 and it worked perfectly for me as well, including BIOS and other functions. We tested basic setups like using two different monitors and connecting an HDMI or DisplayPort cable. Apparently, the splash screen behaves in a comparable way.

Which GPU are you utilizing?
Have you considered running igpu inside the CPU? It might be a 7000 series processor, so that could be a possibility. I’m just checking if it affects performance.
What BIOS version do you have installed?
You can find it in the system information app on Windows. The header next to Bios version/Date under CPU indicates that the motherboard supports Q Flash, which means you might be able to flash the BIOS even without seeing it.

It’s strange that it occurs in two different locations.

For the BIOS I upgraded to the most recent version, FA5e
so the same issue occurs with two different monitors, each tested using a different HDMI cable and one using DisplayPort; they both lack DPI control, which is unclear if this is related. Additionally, the problem appears when attempting to access BIOS via Delayed Start or by opening Advanced Options in Windows after a restart.
Yes, monitors can have varying vertical refresh rates, typically ranging from 60 to 75Hz, though some gaming models use higher speeds like 120, 144, or even 250MHz. In Windows, the operating system detects the monitor's signal and adjusts the GPU frequency accordingly. The BIOS might not function properly, leading to a distorted image.
