Won't start after MSI H97M-G43 BIOS update

Hi all,

Need help for to fix my mother board if it can be fixed.
My setup is as follows;
Mobo: MSI H97M-G43
GPU: MSI GTX 1660 Super Aero ITX OC
CPU: Intel i5-4460
PSU: Raven 500W

My first GPU is MSI GTX 960 OC but it was now dead after several years of using it so I bought new GPU which is stated above.
After installing the MSI GTX 1660, my PC is restarting/shutdown while playing mid games.
I checked my PC using MeTest86+ and got 100% pass rate and 0 errors. I also checked my PSU if the power/voltage is enough and it seems no problem.
Now, my last option was to Update BIOS. The currently installed BIOS version in my mobo is 2.6 7924 and the latest BIOS in the MSI website for my mobo is 2.B 7924 which includes "Improved VGA compatibility".
But after the update my mobo won't start at all and I think I made it bricked.

A failed BIOS update means the board is dead, unfortunately.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad
