Been back and forth with multiple BIOS's. Someone having similar issues with another ASUS board had found a post over on [H] I believe where you flashed it with a blank BIOS to "clean" it then reflash. I just can't be arsed to tear down my water loop/rig to put the old one back in and do it.

But then I just thought about it. I could actually pull the BIOS chip and flip it into the current board to A: confirm it is the BIOS and not the board and B: Flash it, switch it back.

Sounds considerably less painful than dealing with ASUS RMA...
