ASUS has released BIOS updates for its 9 Series motherboards, adding support for 5th-generation Intel Core processors. ASUS 9 Series motherboards that include the ASUS USB BIOS Flashback feature enable users to apply UEFI BIOS updates with ease. This tool downloads the latest BIOS to a USB flash drive, enabling users to update the ASUS UEFI BIOS quickly and easily. The motherboard does not even need to have a CPU or DRAM modules in place: users can connect the power supply, plug in their USB drive, press the USB BIOS Flashback or Reset button and then sit back and wait.

For other ASUS 9 Series motherboards the necessary UEFI BIOS update takes just one click in a Windows-based BIOS updater application, which can be downloaded from the ASUS website.
