    I tried the live update and it says to please install winki from msi driver disk. Also how do I find the model number and download the manual? On my phone?

      I would try and update it over USB if you can download the bios update from another PC from the MSI site. You should find the model number of the mobo under one of the tabs on the bios. Likely the settings tab.

        Flight I have the same case and similar video card. Only difference is I went with an AMD processor and you went with Intel. Here is a shot of the case finished.

          Did you get anywhere yet? You should be able to find the model number of your MOBO in the bios itself. Once you find that go to MSI's site and search by model number. Then go to BIOS updates and find the most recent. You should be able to download that to a USB drive and extract the files there. Then boot into the BIOS and update from there. If you are still confused just youtube update MSI bios.

            Looks good!! I'm up and running and can't believe the difference between PC and Console. Downloaded The Golf Club 2 and it looks and runs amazingly smooth. The mouse is very uncomfortable right now but I'm not switching to a controller. Using my LG 4K monitor and I'm just blown away

            Grabbed Players Unknown and I've only seen it on Streams and Twitch and again I'm just in awe!!

            I think I'm going grab Elite: Dangerous and roll with those 3 for a while. What I hope to accomplish is for the PC honeymoon period to last long enough so I can break completely away from console gaming other than the Switch.

            A huge thanks to everyone that shared advice and tips to make the dream of owning a gaming pc a reality for me. Thank you!

                  Post the model for your mobo and we can look into it further for you and see if there are any other reports for it.

                            There's plenty of games that you'll want a controller for. Shooters, KB/M.

                              Can someone please build me a 4k capable PC with about 1000 bucks?

                              Dont need a monitor. My RAM should be good as well. Im sure my PSU is fine as well. I have a i7 proccessor that I believe is fine. Its a 3770k @ 3.50 ghz.
