250k Plus Motherboard? H810M S2H not compatible

So I bought a Gigabyte H810M S2H on sale and the manual says it has Q Flash Plus, but it literally doesn't have a button for it and there's no marked ports for QFlash so I'm guessing I'm screwed. I already started a return request and will be shipping it back tomorrow.

Now here's my conundrum, I don't want to do this again. I just want to put the CPU in and go. So what board should I be looking at with native support? Or alternatively a board that actually allows flashing without a CPU. I'm sure as hell not buying a $200 older gen CPU just to flash a $60 motherboard.
