Hi,

I'm considering buying an Asus h81m plus mobo to pair with a pentium g3258. I know the 0807 BIOS version supports this cpu, but how can I make sure I don't get sent a mobo that was made before that update?

Let's say I'm buying from Newegg, is there a way to specify which BIOS version I want to be on the mobo I'm buying? Or do I have to wait and see whether or not I'll need to bring it to a computer shop to have it flashed?

Thanks in advance.

The 0807 BIOS is a little over a year old. There is no way that I know of to specify something like that. It doesn't seem that the BIOS rev is printed on the outside of the box. There is a good chance you will be OK but no way to be sure without trying it.

I don't have any boxes handy right now, and I am not sure if I have any Asus boxes....
