Hello.
Question 1
I know that certain motherboards (Z-370) have to update BIOS before running the i7-9700. I couldnt find anyone confirming the Z370-P II can run it without the BIOS update, but on their website it stands "Ready for Socket 1151 for 9th / 8th Gen Intel® Core™, Pentium® Gold and Celeron® processors ".
Can anyone confirm I can buy a new Z370-P II without updating BIOS to use i7-9700?
Question 2
I'm setting up a PC first time in my life. This is what I'm currently thinking of buying
Purpose for pc is to game fortnite 1080p low graphic settings 240hz monitor (Alienware AW2518HF Freesync)
How does this setup look?
