Nice to see they wised up, their only itx option for 12th gen was $400 lol. You better need 2 thunderbolt ports if you bought that board because you definitely paid for them.
I don’t get what you are saying. B660 boards are no longer being made. Who is going to flash the bios of the boards in warehouses or in the stores? How would putting on a sticker make these boards work with the new Raptor Lake CPUs without an updated bios?
Well they are still in production and distrubuted in some parts of the work.
Btw you are right the already made ones would be flashed to latest bios and then shipped by stores or warehouses or manufacturing facilities, only local stores may keep them on shelves until someone asks them to build along a 13th gen cpu in that case they might do the flashing for thr sake of selling. Its been previously practiced.
