I got a cheapo unbranded motherboard to make a socket 1156 PC. It's got the "good" P55 chipset which could allow for voltage changes, BLK changes etc in the BIOS. Unfortunately the BIOS is very limited and doesn't support the CPU Turbo mode, no RAM above 1333MHz, and doesn't have a temperature monitor or fan control so the fans are spinning at 100% all the time.
This unbranded BIOS obviously isn't ever going to officially be updated and I'm not sure where it comes from. If it has a generic BIOS on there, can I replace it with another generic BIOS?
If the BIOS doesn't havea flashing tool, can I still even boot from a USB to update the BIOS?
The BIOS is described as:
AMIBIOS
Version: 08.00.15
Build Date: 05/28/19
