Guide: Update Your Maximus VI Or ASUS Z87 Motherboard With USB BIOS Flashback For Devil's Canyon 4790K, 4690K CPUs

If you've already got or just recently bought a Maximus VI or ASUS Z87 motherboard and have bought a new Intel Core i7 4790K or 4670K CPU dubbed 'Devil's Canyon', or even a new Pentium Anniversary Edition G3258 CPU, then it's likely your PC won't boot straight out the box! This is because you need to update the BIOS to the latest version to give support for these new CPUs on the older Z87 platform. Using the USB BIOS Flashback you can update the Z87 BIOS to the latest version, providing support for Devil's Canyon without first needing an 'original Haswell' CPU. ROG Forum member Praz has helped provide this helpful guide.
