[SOLVED] Can I update bios on Asus rog strix H370-F without CPU

[Ashraf546]

I do have an Asus Rog Strix H370-F Gaming and thinking to put a Core I5-9600K on it but seems that Mobo would not recognize the CPU unless its bios ain't updated. So wondering in here, would I be able to update bios without having a 8th gen CPU on it? Anyone's help would be grateful.

To check the board's BIOS version. Indeed, a BIOS update is needed. Try selecting a CPU supported by the board's BIOS version: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/ROG-STRIX-H370-F-GAMING/HelpDesk_CPU/

There is none out here havin' any of those CPUS, We got no shoppers or a friend that does have it. So just on the account of bios update, Ehm gonna stick to 8600k? Or you gonna sort out some ways? Anythin' else that could be done?

Try contacting ASUS, or the retailer. See what they say. Maybe they'll help.
