Hi. I wish to update my BIOS file as I'm trying to get a new GPU (RX480) to work in my machine (it currently won't post with the RX480 in there but is fine with my previous Radeon 6870)

I have a motherboard whose identifying sticker says it is a H67MP-V v2.0, but when I goto into CMOS setup, it states Model name: H67M-S/H67M-V/H67M with BIOS version A48F1016.

I'm convinced the sticker is right - the board layout, PCIe slots, number of audio outputs, etc, matches only the H67MP-V http://www.foxconnchannel.com/ProductDetail.aspx?T=Motherboard&U=en-us0000531# when I look at socket 1155 boards on Foxconns site.

So I'm a little confused as to what BIOS file to go for and don't want to brick my board.

Should I go for the H67MP-V BIOS?
Does this board have any unbricking features to reset to a good BIOS if it is wrong?

Thanks

Thanks
The final solution was to Flash the latest ME-Bios for the H67MP-V then flash the latest SystemBios for the H67MP-V.

I'm new to the Management Engine Bios thing (ME-Bios) but it worked so happy days.

The RX480 is now working in my machine.

Thanks again.
