How to Update BIOS for Ryzen 7 9700X on Gigabyte B650 Motherboard (QFLASH)

In this video, I'll walk you through the process of updating the BIOS on your Gigabyte B650 GAMING X AX V2 (rev. 1.x) motherboard to support the AMD Ryzen 7 9700X processor, using QFlash.

I recently bought this bundle from Micro Center, but out of the box, the motherboard doesn't support the CPU.

We’ll cover:

• Checking for BIOS compatibility Formatting your USB drive to FAT32 using Rufus
• Downloading the latest BIOS from the Gigabyte website
• Flashing the BIOS using Gigabyte's Q-Flash without the CPU installed
