Hi I wonder if anyone can offer me some help , I have Asus Z170 Gaming Pro Motherboard and I would like to know what is the model number of the programmable Bios chip on the motherboard
This board for reference :- https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...cket-1151-ddr4-atx-motherboard-mb-68e-as.html
I am presuming it is a winbond bios chip , but I do not know the full model number.
I have a i5 6400 currently running in the motherboard , but I have read about re-flashing the bios back to a older version , but I kind of want to play safe .
Buy the correct chip and use a programmer to program the chip , take out the one installed in the motherboard and then plug in the newly programmed chip....rather than maybe ruin my original bios chip , worse case I can swap it back over.
All help and advice welcomed.
