I was following this custom pc build on youtube, so i put all the parts in PCPartPicker. However, it said that it had the incompatibility? Do i still need an update? if so, how do i do it. By the way, do you think this is a good build and easy to put all the parts in the case?

Also, im pretty confused how you would plug in the pc into the power socket. Would the plug be for U.S sockets or will it be for the UK? If it is for the US, would i need a power transformer? This might be a stupid question but im just trying to clarify.

Solution
Most 970 motherboards will have a recent bios that will support vishera cpus out of the box. The warning is just a pre-caution.
Easy depends on your skill and knowledge, if you already have a good idea on what to do, it should be something you pick up quickly. Always check your manual if you unsure about something.
