We've been expecting that 600 series motherboards will support Intel's upcoming 13th Gen ‘Raptor Lake' desktop processors, and now, it looks like vendors are preparing. ASRock appears to be the first motherboard vendor to roll out a BIOS with 13th Gen Core processor support for most of its 600-series line-up.
The new BIOS updates are now available to download. Those who own a compatible ASRock motherboard can flash their BIOS via EZ update/setting, using an USB flash drive and the BIOS flashback button, or UEFI.
The following table lists all the motherboards and respective BIOS supporting Intel 13th Gen Core chips:
