Just one press for instant compatibility with new 4th-generation Intel Core Processors

All ASUS 8 series Intel motherboards support new 4th-generation Intel Core processors by following one of two simple procedures.

ASUS 8 series motherboards that include the renowned ASUS USB BIOS Flashback feature[1] enable users to apply UEFI BIOS updates with incredible ease. This innovative tool lets users update UEFI BIOS with just a USB flash drive containing the appropriate UEFI BIOS file. The motherboard does not even need to have a CPU or DRAM modules in place: users can simply connect the power supply, plug in their USB drive, press the USB BIOS Flashback or Reset button and then sit back and wait — there’s nothing else to do!

For other ASUS 8 series motherboards the necessary UEFI BIOS update takes just one click in an easy-to-use Windows-based BIOS updater application[2], which can be downloaded from the ASUS website. Users keen to take advantage of the power of the latest 4th-generation Intel Core processors can visit the ASUS website, at www.asus.com, and download the relevant UEFI BIOS version today.
