I haven't posted in a while but I saw the issue with the cpu compatibility a few posts up. If you are sure it's a bios issue and not hardware, just call them and request a new bios chip............................ 909-590-8308

what a shame though. I'll probably sell my EVGA Z68 FTW that is coming in the mail tomorrow if MC doesn't have another sale ON black...

I don't blame you, I did the same thing.
Picked up mine this morning. I reserved one yesterday before the server got overloaded with orders. Newegg has an EVGA Z68 FTW for $125 shipped, so I'm pairing the 2500K with that for a cheap new toy.
I'm in Houston. Sold out in 15...
It should work, but Asus has this on their site........................

Edit: You won't have a problem booting to the BIOS and your OS, but only update the bios if necessary.
