I recently purchased a Corsair One Elite, running the 8700K.
I have also had an offer for a very very reasonably priced 9700K, so reasonably priced that I would be able to sell the 8700K, used and be in profit so I very intrestd in possibly switching out the 8700K to the 9700K, enjoying the slight speed increase and making a bit of money in the process.
My issue is with motherboard comparability. Looking at CPU-Z it seems to show the motherboard as a 'Z370I CORSAIR ONE (MS-7B43)', which when googling comes up as the MSI Z370I Gaming Pro Carbon AC, which states it should support the 9th gen processor in question however I would like to confirm before going ahead as the board is quite obviously running custom software / bios and seems to have the top VRM heatsink removed for space saving reasons.
The bios version is 2.CA and dated as 06/25/2018. Is this a custom BIOS version for the corsair one?
Would the Motherboard be compatible with the 9700K? Or is this a board specifically modified and locked for the one CPU?
