I was so scared to update the BIOS, because in previous PC when I tried it, it went wrong and I had to replace the entire motherboard. Now with my current computer, I didn't update the BIOS (until now). I had random crashes in a specific game, which the motherboard "could" be responsible for (I'm not going into details here). The original firmware is from 2022, almost 4 years old, and since there were dozens maybe 100 updates! Last one from this months. I think this will improve stability, compatibility and security, and with a little bit luck also performance. So everyone should theoretically do it, but make sure you do it right.

What's cool on my ASUS board is, I could update from USB stick while PC is turned off. I just had to make sure file was named correctly, and just hold the button on the motherboard for 3 seconds to start the process and wait (maybe 3 minutes, felt like 3 hours). After rebooting the system I had to accept recovering the previous bios settings, on the prompt at boot, save the settings and reboot normally. Confirmed the new bios version is running with inxi -M.
