Hi, I accidentally clicked the “clear CMOS button” on the back of my PC. My motherboard is an MSI Z790 tomahawk Wi-Fi. When I click the button my PC turned off and when it turned back on a pop-up came up for MSI center. Are there any suggestions with what to do with this pop-up? I’ve clicked and stole on everything but I’m wondering now if MSI center is even worth installing, as in, if it affects gaming performance.

You can go into the bios and enable XMP again, and adjust fan curves if you need.

Yep, and save options

I read online that the CMOS button resets settings to default. I had my PC optimized by some other guy, I’m guessing it would’ve changed any settings he used?
