    [WTB] LG V30 or similar grade smartphone

    USA-TX Hello, not sure if this is the right place for this. Looking to buy a phone to help a friend in an economic dip out (not begging for anything as I am purchasing). Would like to stay around or less than $100. Looking for a LG v30 caliber phone, should work with AT&T/H20 wireless. Thanks.

    Cpu upgrade and now no output

    You probably need a bios update to go from skylake to the newer kaby lake. The two are inter compatible with a bios update on the skylake platform
