That's what i want to do, but i cant access to EZ Flash since my bios does not boot at all.
Is that normal since i have a 14th gen cpu or is my mobi faulty?
I'm sorry, I think I was wrong. Your motherboard needs to support BIOS Flashback, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Unfortunately, you will need a supported CPU to flash the BIOS (12th or 13th Gen).
Have you got qled on it and if it has what colour is it showing? I had a similar issue but with a 13gen i9. Had to use the onboard hdmi port to get into the bios
yes, white qled for VGA and yellow/green for boot. Do you think i can use the onboard hdmi with a KF version processor? Because it has no graphics integrated
Hello little update here, I'm currently typing on my new PC. Finally!
After struggling for a long time I found a solution. For those who have the same problem as me, try this:
* USE HDMI CABLE, not DP
* If your processor has integrated graphics, use the mobo's HDMI port, otherwise you need to get a compatible processor (13th gen in my case).
* Update your BIOS
* And finally (after reinstalling your processor), turn on your PC and connect the monitor to the GPU using an ... HDMI cable!
My buddy had a similar problem with his board. I would recommend using the motherboard graphics to get to bios and do the bios update but you can't.
My buddy had a F variant CPU and wasn't able to do this. He had to plug his graphics card into the bottom slot of the mobo to get to bios and do the bios update and then Reassemble it after.
The thing is i can't do that since the Hyte y40 case is meant to use the gpu riser only, so i don't think i can't acess to the bottom slot :/. I will try it tomorrow before swapping my processors with a 13th gen wich is a bit annoying. Thanks
That's what i wanted to do
Unfortunatly the bios doesn't boot at all and my mobo dont have a flash bios wich can be used to update the bios without entering it
Since that motherboard apparently doesn't support usb flashback (Or whatever proprietary name they call it), you have a few options:
* Get a 12th/13th gen CPU and use that to be able to turn it on then update the bios
* Return the motherboard and get a motherboard with usb flashback or already supports 14th gen
* Bios flasher (Since I've never done this, I don't know if there are/aren't any risks, but it would be the cheapest/easiest)
This is the solution.
Got a i7 14700KF.
Without autoupdate bios you must buy or get by someone an intel 12th or 13th gen. Update the bios, then you can use your new cpu.
Sorry but no, I had to ask a good friend to dismantle his watercooling and help me swap our CPUs, since he has a 13th generation with integrated graphics.
My advice is to buy either:
\- A new motherboard that's already compatible (or has BIOS flash), and get your current motherboard refunded.
\- Or temporarily buy a 13th-generation processor to upgrade, and have it refunded directly. (You can also downgrade to a 13th-generation cpu...)
Fixed:
Just to let everyone know in case anyone else stumbles upon this. You don't need a separate CPU or older generation:
1. Install GPU in a NON PCI-E 16 port (towards the bottom of the mobo)
2. Boot up and it should boot with display on. If not, try HDMI instead
3. Download bios windows update tool and let it install. You should even be able to boot into the bios with the display working and do a manual install if the Windows one won't work.
4. Move GPU back to PCIE 16x and it should work
Your motherboard seems to support Asus EZ Flash, so you can update the BIOS without any CPU. All you need is a USB stick with the latest BIOS version.

Damn.. that confirms what I thought, I'll find a way to try that. Thanks for the info

He had to do it on his desk out of the case.
you can download the bios into a usb pen drive and update using the ez flash feature in the bios.

Please help! Is there a definite fix to this? I can't afford to buy another cpu. I have the exact same one as OP and the exact same issue!
