You'll need BIOS Flashback if your motherboard won't support your new CPU until it gets a BIOS update. You just put the BIOS update files on a Flash drive (you definitely don't need one of the best flash drives for this), plug it into a specific port on the motherboard, press a button and wait a couple of minutes while some lights flash. BIOS Flashback: Available on some higher-end motherboards, this allows you to update without booting the PC or even having a CPU installed.Update via the BIOS / UEFI environment: Boot into the PC's BIOS (aka UEFI) environment and use the menus there to load the BIOS update that you've put onto a USB Flash drive.
