F2A88XN-WIFII got the MOBO in Jan 2013 and it would NOT POST with 7850k . So I have No Idea of the In Box BIOS version.But it is a Rev. 3.0 MOBO ! So I sent the MOBO to gigabyte. when it can back it POST'd on first tryand it now has BIOS ver. F3 . staying with F3 .Because of ATI\AMD staggard release of the A88x chip set and then the 7850k at least 6 months later,it is basically unknown what BIOS version is out there in the on the shelf MOBO's .I like the MOBO. realtek HD 892 azillia audio , on board WiFI , and Kaveri GPU .Only a shop based re-seller that has FM2 pre-kaveri CPU on hand could answer your question.

When I received my board, it came with the F1 bios. I have since updated to F4b. No problems. I should note that I ordered and received my board in mid November 2013. Hope this helps.

Yes, according to the support website linked below. However, it requires a later BIOS version than what may be currently on your board. You may have to flash the BIOS to use it.http://goo.gl/7108ON

This is the board i purchased for my 4790k haswell and it has been working good, the bios will need to be updated though.

I can't tell you for certain but is a very solid board. It has been on since I finished building it. Contact ASUSTEK about your processor. They would be your best source of information.

You can either flash the latest version bios or buy a pre-flashed chip online, if you're comfortable with doing that. It will allow you to use the latest components.

was latest at time of purchase, however i7 3770 installed without any problems. no bios flashing needed.

Actually a bios update is required (Bios F5 minimum), though I guess it depends on whether or not this will ship with the updated bios or not.Did you do this build?

It's an obsolete board, the current version (Z97) is much cheaper. I can's imagine why someone would buy this, but if they had a real gem of an 1155 CPU, maybe it's worth it to the right person?

the software included with the motherboard has utility to update your bios by itself, just open it up it will scan to find the bios you need for the newest update.I have the 4790k as well, runs great. what was your issue with the chip if you don't mind me asking?

Hello Ricardo. I bought this Motherboard and CPU combination prior to Xmas. The board accomodates the CPU very well and no BIOS update is necessary. Good Luck

not sure of the version still on the box, it has a UEFI dual BIOS and i think you can download some BIOS updates if that's your concern.

I would check Gigabyte's website or ask it on Tom's Hardware forum. They know everything!

Amazon actually has a separate link for the new version: ASUS TUF SABERTOOTH Z97 MARK 1/USB 3.1 LGA1150 DDR3 SATA 10Gb/s USB 3.1 Type A Intel Z97 ATX Motherboard

You need to know what motherboard your using then go to the manufactures Web site look for downloads and drivers then look for bios updates

I can't say directly. To find that answer one needs to look at the motherboard specks for unit it is going into. I was fortunate because I saved the manual and was able to look it up. If no hard copy of manual try online search. Results seem much better these days. Good luck.
