Hey there. Photos show other way you can connect the SKT_OCC pins of the socket together: Either way does same thing, it tells the board that there is a coffee lake CPU inserted into the socket. (because that function moved in coffee lake to a different pinout location)
Hey, sorry for being stupid but I want to be sure. You're telling us that instead of shorting the pins in the green box we can just isolate the pins in the red zones with something like electrical tape, right ?
ASRock z170 MOCF lives on Coffee Lake Mods
in Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake (-X) (Z170/Z270/Z370/X299) OC
