One failed bios update* and I find myself in need of a new mobo for my i5-6600K. I had an asus Z170-P D3 with DDR3.
Looks like DDR3 for socket 1151 don't really exist anymore so also looks like that needs an update to DDR4, 16gb should be enough and is what I had before.
Budget I'd like to keep down as just got a Rift which I've not even used due to this mishap.
*Upgraded to latest copy and machine will then not post. Can get a single post if I drop the cmos but asus on their latest bios disabled downgrading so it will not recognise older bios versions I try to load up.
