Bios Flashback

Ability to update the BIOS without requiring a CPU and RAM installed on the motherboard. This advanced feature is intended for experienced users and is useful for supporting newer processors on older motherboards. Please refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the process, as it may vary between manufacturers.

For example, if you want to install a Ryzen 5000 series processor on a chipset that only supports it after a BIOS upgrade, BIOS Flashback can be used without having an older processor on the motherboard.

Clear CMOS button

Button for clearing the CMOS memory of the motherboard. Advanced function for experienced users that can also be achieved by simply removing and reinserting the motherboard battery. Useful function if something goes wrong during the overclocking process or BIOS settings for a reset to the original state.

    I got the MSI MPG Z790 Edge because it allows for a lot of OC settings in the BIOS. However, I didn't end up changing anything there, but it did give me the ability to use Intel Extreme Tuning for a safe automatic CPU OC, as I'm not experienced enough with OC through the BIOS. Another thing that personally helped me is the two USB 2.0 ports it has, which are needed when connecting multiple RGB devices.
