Impeccable

Motherboard updated to the latest manufacturer's version. Repackaged cleanly, with a message indicating the operation. A bit expensive, but essential to support the Zen2+, so thanks LDLC for this service.

        CLEAR

        Everything is excellent. BIOS update done, everything was put away in the box (so well put away that I had a doubt if the update was done or forgotten). I installed the Intel 14th on my CM Z790 and everything works perfectly.

        Super

        Second time I've bought a motherboard with the update request and every time it's great! They add a small sheet noting the current update that they have put on the card which allows you to check if it's really the latest or if the maj is compatible with your processor! Big gg for that LDLC!

        Excellent service

        Nothing to complain about - there's barely a mark on the packaging tape to indicate that the card has been unwrapped for the upgrade. No problem getting the processor to run afterwards.

        All is well

        Bios update requested because the first bios were not Linux compatible on my CM, and I didn't want to play.
        It works perfectly. Nothing to report, so everything is good!

        Bad advice from the LDLC platform

        Following a contact on the LDLC central platform (Jérémy) to upgrade my configuration based on a Gigabyte AB350 Gaming CM on Window 11, the technician wrote to me that it was possible with a BIOS upgrade and a new processor. So I ordered a CG RX 6600 as well.
        But on the day I was due to collect my Window 11-compliant PC, I was told that the platform had made a mistake and that it wasn't possible with a motherboard upgrade or some other not-so-clean trick.
        In short, beware of advice because it's costing me a CM.

        Nickel

        The service was carried out correctly, and my CPU 5600G was recognised directly. The motherboard is repackaged in its box, so it's impeccable.

        Extremely easy to do yourself

        I had it done for a Gigabyte A520M DS3H CM on the advice of the sales department to install (later) a dual QHD which would not have been supported with the bios without an update. The update was (well) done by LDLC but :
        - it delayed the delivery of the CM by a day compared to the CPU I ordered at the same time;
        - it's very easy to do (there are software tools in Windows to do it on the fly, with a level of computer ignorance...)
        - I installed the PC with an HD screen, so I could have updated it myself before upgrading to a dual QHD.
        In short, it's not really worth it...

        Latest version installed

        With the order of an ASUS ROG STRIX B760-F GAMING WIFI, I took this option to have one less problem at the 1st boot of the new PC.
        LDLC did the job, latest BIOS version installed.

        No problem at all

        I asked for this service without being sure there was any need for it, but in the end, there's almost no trace of the intervention, it's almost as if it hadn't been unpacked (but the state of the tape around the packaging bag proves that it's been opened at least once). And there have been no problems with the motherboard since installation.

        A useful service

        The service was done on my Prime Z690-P, with a sheet indicating the version that was installed (it could also have indicated what the previous version was).
        Handy when you don't have the previous generation CPU and you're not sure if the motherboard you're going to buy has the updated bios compatible with the new CPU you want.

        A bit long...

        I think there is a legitimate reason behind the time it adds to the order preparation but as I can't figure out what it is, it's the 5th star that suffers!

        Very long order preparation time

        It was the only part I was missing to assemble my pc, if I had known I would have ordered it before.
        Bad surprise when I unpacked it, for me the socket has BENT pins!
        I took the risk to assemble my pc anyway, no problem and HAPPY.

        I've been using it for a while now and I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it.

        The service was done but I can't tell if the problem I mentioned above is original or if it was done by the person who prepared my order.

        A great help!

        I am never very comfortable with this type of update, and moreover the card only accepted the processor with an updated bios, hence the vicious circle... The service is worth it!

        For about twenty euros... it's worth it especially if you're not comfortable with bios maj with USB BIOS FlashBack™ technology or don't have a previous gen processor.
        Motherboard repackaged super cleanly.
        I recommend

        Well updated

        This update was required for an MSI B450M PRO-M2 MAX motherboard with an AMD RYZEN 3 4300GE processor.
        Has been done correctly as the processor works fine.
        Always a shame to have to pay such an extra fee when there are only AMD Ryzen's left!

        Perfect

        When buying a motherboard with a processor, sometimes it is not certain whether the BIOS or UEFI version supports it. And when you are not sure it is always better to have an expert hand to make sure and this service is the little extra that ensures the right functionality

        A bit of fear, but no, everything is ok!

        For a Gigabyte X570 AORUS MASTER motherboard.
        Honestly, I was thinking at first 3 things:
        1- I can do this upgrade myself (damn, I don't have a USB key anymore)
        2- I'm not too comfortable with them opening MY box and taking out MY motherboard !....
        3- what if they lose something while packing it up? a cable, a manual, something!

        And as a result :
        1- If the update had not been done via usb before, my Ryzen 9 5950XT would not have been recognized. And I don't want to mess up the BIOS at the beginning, especially since it's on an extreme configuration!
        2- In fact, they will see right away if this motherboard works or is a dead item from the factory! In a way an insurance/test of functioning before shipping (and mount everything and press the ON button with fear...)
        3- No. Everything arrived as if the box had never been opened! I even wondered if they had worked on it so much it looked like it came out of the factory (not even a fingerprint on the card once it was unpacked, and yet I looked for it in purple light! ... :) ). And a little note attached inside told me that LDLc put the f33j BIOS (or something like that...). Phew! Which was verified once the PC was mounted and launched.

        So 10/10, and really, for 23e, you don't want to be bored! ...

        Very good service

        Updating a bios is not very complicated, but I think that this service is done with a correct quality-price ratio: the bios of my motherboard was well updated to its last version at the time of my order, with indication of this version on a paper added in the box. My Ryzen 5600X was recognized without any problem. And the card box was well stored, with no missing accessories.
        Thank you!

        Ordered with a CM ASRock B450- Pro 4

        I ordered an ASRock B450- Pro 4 CM to pair with a Ryzen 5 3600, my CM arrived correctly upgraded.
        I had no problems with it, the CM was not damaged, neither was the packaging.

        I only put 8/10 for the price ... I'm not sure how much it costs to flash a BIOS, but I'm not sure how much it costs to flash a BIOS...

        On advice

        I ordered an Asus Prime X299 Deluxe card and an Intel Core I9 7920X. I asked the LDLC technicians for advice, and they were right, because a bios update was imperative for the Core to work. I have no problem updating the bios on an installed card, but when it's still in its packaging I have to admit that I don't know how to do it. The visit to the Asus website confirmed that this update was imperative. I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure that I'll be able to get the card and the rest of the hardware in one package. I had not asked for such a delivery (classic colissimo) the delivery time despite the update was 6 days, nothing to say, if not thank you to all employees of LDLC.

        Misleading service

        When I bought a GA-990XA-UD3 R5 motherboard in February 2016, I subscribed to this service which is not cheap (20-25% of the price of the motherboard).

        At the time of purchase, a version 2 of the bios had already been produced by Gigabyte (dated April 2, 2015).
        What a surprise to discover today that my motherboard is on a version 1!

        I didn't want to have any potential problems so the update done by someone who knows about it is the assurance of not having to worry about it anymore, and that's cool. Thanks to LDLC, it does the trick.

        Perfect and inexpensive

        After checking on the manufacturer's website of the motherboard (ASRock FM2A68M-DG3+), the CPU I wanted was not compatible with the original bios, except for having a compatible CPU in advance to do so, the cost proposed by LDLC is more interesting
        The motherboard, if ordered with other hardware, can be delivered separately later
        I had received my order almost complete, I was missing the famous motherboard and after a phone contact, it turned out that it was still in the workshop and that it was going to be delivered to me as soon as possible, the hotline was correct and very fast to deal with my concern

        Perfect

        LDLC is the only site that offers this tricky manoeuvre for the most amateur of us. I bought an ASUS motherboard and needed this upgrade to work with my Ryzen 5. Unfortunately this motherboard was 40€ cheaper on other sites but they didn't offer this upgrade, so I opted for LDLC even if it was more expensive.

        It's said and done

        No surprise, my Gigabyte motherboard bios was at the latest version when I received it.
        The service was fast as I received my motherboard at the same time as all my other components.
        This is the kind of service I trust from LDLC.

        A document is present indicating the version of the bios.

        Very happy with the service

        Updating Bios on motherboards without a facilitated graphics update system is a risky business. I prefer to leave this step to experienced professionals. I had to request an update after consulting the official Gygabite website where you can see the list of processors compatible with your motherboard and the version of Bios needed. The motherboard was received with an upgrade certificate, which is great for ISO 9001 compliant companies.

        Perfect

        Ordered on Friday, delivered on Thursday, the update done + the assembly of - 5 pieces with a well protected package.
        I'm taking off one star because of the choice via Chronopost. The package was delivered to the post office and not to my home.

        Top service.

        Upgrading a Gigabyte Aorus GA-Z270X-GAMING K5 motherboard for new installation. Not really sure about upgrading a motherboard, I took this option and it's perfect.
        Mounted in a Zalman Z11 case, coupled with an I5-7500 and a Gigabyte GTX-1060 G1 Gaming 3GB motherboard, it's time to enjoy.

        Thanks LDLC.

        I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it. The disadvantage is that you don't have to be in a hurry, you have to wait an average of 2-3 days for additional processing :)
        At the top!

        More than useful if you want to start in the best conditions

        I would recommend LDLC for their professionalism and their advice, never on it...

        an option I recommend

        The upgrade was advised to me when I bought the motherboard, I had no hesitation in taking it (being a novice in changing motherboards). This option has not been delayed. I strongly recommend it in order to have the latest version of the BIOS!

        Very fast, very serious, very well done job by professionals
        I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the work.
        It's a good idea to have it done by a professional, but it's not worth it.
        It's guaranteed, so why go without?

        Useful

        I would have liked to have been able to assemble my PC myself, but I received it fully assembled. I would have liked to be able to assemble my PC myself, but I received it fully assembled. It's a shame :/ but otherwise, very good!

        Really recommended option!

        The BIOS update for my ASUS-H81 GAMER motherboard was done by the LDLC technical team in two days.

        I was very punctual and received my motherboard the day after I ordered my PC. I was able to assemble it directly.

        I really advise non-experienced people to have it done by LDLC.
