I wanted to ask you.
I have a computer on an ASUS Z170 MAXIMUS VIII HERO motherboard. At the moment, the i7 6700k is installed there. I am willing to buy an i7 9700k or i9 9900K cpu. To do this, you need to patch the BIOS, add the microcode and patch ME.
How then to proceed in such a situation? Discuss in this topic, or create a new one for this? If so, which branch? In this one?
Thank you in advance
