I bought a new Radeon RX 570 that doesn't appear to work with my motherboard. (System starts without beeping, GPU fans spin, but monitor says no HDMI output.) It appears to be a BIOS issue, so I want to update my BIOS. However I've run into an interesting problem.
HP shows no BIOS updates for my system model (h8-1100z). However, it does show a BIOS update for another system model with the exact same motherboard and chipset as mine (h8-1212).
I know flashing the wrong BIOS will brick my machine, so I want to be extra sure I'm not making a mistake. I don't have the hardware expertise to judge whether this is worth trying or not. Can anyone tell me if this would be safe to try?
