EZ Flash 2 – the best way to update your BIOS So I was doing a bit of research on how to blow up my PC and I came across a bit of info I thought some of you may appreciate. Kudos go out to Hiker on the Asus forums because this is a great write-up. SOURCE
When it comes to BIOS updates its good to follow the motto "if it aint broke dont try to fix it" a bad BIOS update can seriously mess up your computer, and in some cases some manufacturers have been known to release bad bios files in the past.
Yes, but if you want to get the most out of your board it is often required. Hell, I'm about to drop my third processor in a board I've been using since 07. It started off with a 2.4 single core and is about to get a 3.4 X4, it's amazing what a a good product with great support can do.
