[SOLVED] ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-E How to update BIOS without a CPU?

[StanleyAsks]

My motherboard is the ROG Strix Z370-E and unfortunately the BIOS is still not updated for a 9th gen intel cpu. I've heard of ASUS ROG USB FLASHBACK, but I am not sure if this model has it.
Thank you very much!

That board does not have Flashback.

You have a couple of options. Take it to a shop that can flash it for you or send it to the manufacturer to be updated. Additionally you could get a very inexpensive 8th Gen Pentium and use that to flash the BIOS, or return the board and buy a Z390 model.
