Aorus x570 pro Cmos battery rapid degradation.

I had been keeping my system with Aorus x570 motherboard powerwd off for certain periods while away. This could be between fews days to weeks. Early this year I noticed bios being reset and the CMOS battery voltage was 0.4V and I knew I had to change it. But this was unprecedented as this was such a rapid decline in mere 2 years of owning the board.
I replaced battery with Duracell. This time around I kept the system plugged in at all times. Few occasions where I had to turn off the plug I saw the battery decline in voltage from 3.3 to 3.2v. This month I was away for two weeks and had to turn of all the systems down. I even unplugged any USB devices. Now the battery voltage reads out 3.1v.
There's a steady decline and replacing it again would be a pain given its beneath a Rtx 3090.
For further context the system is completely packed with nvme and sata drives, high powered fans running with molex and sata power.

My secondary system which has seen similar shutdown cycle has had a steady cmos battery voltage at 3.26v.
I can't think of a particular reason why this is happening. I don't know if I have to RMA the board or if its a minor issue.

If someone has faced similar issue like mine please post your experience and how you may have fixed it.

Thanks.

swap your other boards cmos battery into x570

Different connections. X570 is holder variant and the other being wired lead type. Still what bothers me is seeing this decline if I were to power down later on, the battery would die rapidly after a certain voltage level (should be around 2.0v).
