Chosen Solution My 27’ 2017 1Mac came with an i5. I want to upgrade the CPU to i7 7700K. I wonder do I need to update the bios of my iMac. Cheers.

If that doesnt work, do the following....
Chosen Solution My keriug elite is 1 month old now it’s making a lot of noise how can I fix this I have already exchanged 2 of them for different reasons Hi @glenbub , What type of noise is it making? Have you tried de-scaling the coffee maker to see if this reduces the noise. Here’s a link to the user guide which shows how to do this. (scroll down to “Descaling your Brewer”) If this doesn’t solve the problem or is unrelated to the noise, as it is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, make another claim for a warranty repair or replacement....

These are not consistent but more like moving pixels that look to be moving from the bottom of the screen to the top, they’re really faint however having noticed them its now something I can’t not see, any ideas? is this a sign of impending death?

But, the catalytic converter(s) will be damaged if they are not already. The real problem is the rich condition. There could be many causes of rich mixture, dirty/sticking injectors, bad sensor(s), bad computer, clogged air cleaner, disconnected or problems with wires or vacuum hoses....
