Yup, my first thought as well. While those days are thankfully over, those braindead BIOS "help" messages remain etched into my mind forever.

Are the recent ones any better? I got a gigabyte b660m for 12th gen intel and it's really bad at that. Had to look up a lot to figure out things.

Maybe it's an ASUS thing but both my current and previous boards have been pretty good with the help texts.

Snapmaker Luban is amazing with its help messages.

Every setting in this 3D slicer is completely explained how the setting works, what the different options are, with pictures and even what every option is the most optimal in whatever situation.

Too bad that it isn't the best program unless you have a Snapmaker, and even then...
