Posted July 15, 2014 Hello guys, my friend ordered a msi b85-g43 mobo with an i5 4460 and my question will it boot and work? since the b85-g43 doesent support haswell refresh out of the box and needs a bios update? On the msi website it have been realesed a new update for the haswell refresh. Here is an article saying msi 8 series mobo's can do this http://www.msi.com/news/1664.html Gaming Computer | Case: CM Storm Scout II | MB: Asus P8Z77-V LK | CPU: i5 2320@3,6ghz | GFX: MSI GTX 770 Gaming | RAM: 8gb DDR3 @ 1333mhz | Storage: 1TB Seagate Barracuda | Monitor: 1x Asus VG248QE @ 144Hz , 1x Samsung SyncMaster SA300 @ 77hz OC'd Other Device's | Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE@OmniROM | Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1@OmniROM | Laptop: Lenovo ThinkPad T61 Win 8.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
