X570/B550/A520 Q-FLASH PLUS BIOS UPDATE GUIDE
GIGABYTE Q-Flash Plus allows users to update to the latest BIOS using
a thumb drive without the CPU or memory needing to be installed.
1 From GIGABYTE’s website, download the latest compressed BIOS update
file that matches your motherboard model from its product page.
3 Insert the USB flash drive into the white USB port or BIOS Q Flash port on
the back panel of your motherboard (USB port may not be labelled on all
models, checking the user manual is recommended)
2 Uncompress the downloaded BIOS file, save it to your
USB flash drive, and rename it to GIGABYTE.bin. Note:
The USB flash drive must use the FAT32/16 file system.
Rename to
GIGABYTE.bin
4 Connect the power cables to
the CPU 8 Pin power connector
(connect either one if there are
two) and mainboard 24 Pin
power connector.
5 Press the Q-Flash Plus button (location may vary by model) and the
system will automatically search and match the BIOS file in the USB flash
drive on the white USB port. The QFLED and the Q-Flash Plus button on
the rear panel will flash during the BIOS matching and flashing process.
Wait for 2-3 minutes and the QFLED will stop flashing when the BIOS
flashing is complete.
