I am upgrading my pc and while on pc part picker i get this error msg. "Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions" The mobo i am using is the "Msi 970 gaming atx. The cpu i am using is "AMD - FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor".Just wondering if i will get any issues with this build and if i do need to uodate the bios is there a way i can do this??
 
Solution
First your making a big mistake buying a FX processor (5 years old already and was not very good 5 years ago)

It will work with the motherboard without a BIOS update.
