Hey Geekzone,

 

So I've received a B350 board from a family friend. I need to flash the board so it can accept newer Ryzen CPUs.

 

Does anyone have a CPU they're willing to ship? I'm willing to pay postage + a fee, if wanted/needed.

 

I will send it back once I'm down with it.

could you not take the board into one of the computer stores and have them do it?

That's my backup plan, though I'd prefer not to if I could, they charge a crazy amount for some reason.

Playtech charged me about $25 to do mine, PBTech were something crazy like $50 when I asked.

Yeah the nearest playtech for me is somewhere in North Auckland.

 

PBTech quoted 70 NZD for me.

PB Tech did mine for free, but then I did buy the motherboard (but not CPU) from them....
