New Build ASUS B650E-F (Latest BIOS 1414) wont boot to Boot manager without going into BIOS and selecting it from the "Boot Override" I did manage to install Windows 10 pro, but its a pain to keep booting up like this.Im confident it has something to do with FTPM as I am unfamiliar and still researching online. During my initial boot up I was prompted with "A new CPU is installed fTPM etc". I elected to press "Y" to reset FPTM because in my quick research to find out what that even was, the instructions advised to do that. Short version, I have yet to figure out how to configure the BIOS to get me on the right track, Everything I have read so far leads me to believe that my current BIOS setting should be good, but its not? Im missing something? Please help. thank you,

CPU: AMD 7800X3D
MOBO: ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming
RAM: G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO Series 64GB (2 x 32GB) DDR5 6000 CL30-40-40-96

Dis-regard. After 3 days, I called ASUS. Bottom line was. I had my Arctic AIO CPU cooler plugged into the AIO Header, instead of the CPU Fan Header (As the manual states to do) and when plugged into the CPU Fan header now, all boots up fine. WTF with all the hours of research! At least im good now, was ready to order a new MOBO and send this one back via prime,,,,

It's amazing you had all that drama cause' a fan/pump header connection was in the wrong connection point. Quite weird indeed!

Well, the bottom line was that I was plugged into the correct header for AIO CPU Cooler (Manual supports this). Tech support had me swap the AIO to the CPU Fan Header, and that did actually fix the issue BUT, what I should have been told was to simply DISABLE the CPU Fan Header in the BIOS if nothing was going to be plugged into it if using AIO header (The manual does not state this). I wound up putting the AIO onto the AIO header and disabling the CPU Fan Header and all is well. I did not know that I needed to do this.
