Gigabyte Bios Version Compatibility
Hey so I recently was looking at this Mobo & someone showed me this:
http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=4950
I wanted to get the i5 4690K, however how the Bios Versions work baffles me,
you can only run a cpu that is compatible with the specific bios version number, however it doesn't say what the mobo ships with anywhere.
On that link it states two versions, F5 and F7, if I were to buy one now on amazon how would I know what version it'll come with as it seems daft buying £320 of gear only to hope they work.
Thanks for your help
