Yesterday my PC wouldnt boot. It would only load the first 5 seconds, then it would turn off and start up again. Nothing would turn on, monitors, keyboard, ect.. Then i tried to start my PC without the CMOS battery and it would boot fine, but the fans were at 100% speed and settings are at default. I think my CMOS battery is dead. Which kinda battery can i buy and use as replacement? It looks like a normal CMOS battery, but on the top, it says 5o2. I really need some help, i have no idea of what kinda battery to buy. I dont wanna get the wrong one and fry my computer

The motherboard is: MSI Gaming Z170A Krait 3X
