Should I update my BIOS?


BIOS updates don’t usually introduce new features or huge speed boosts, so you probably won’t see a huge benefit. Unless the latest BIOS comes with security patches, support for new hardware you plan to use, or fixes a bug that’s been plaguing your daily usage, you’re best off leaving it alone.

What happens if you don’t update BIOS?

If a BIOS update goes wrong, it could stop your motherboard from working correctly and potentially stop your computer from starting as expected.

Will updating BIOS improve performance?

Generally no. You typically update your BIOS only when something isn’t working right on your pc. Normally, that’s a hardware component that isn’t supported by your board. Updating the BIOS is simply a last ditch attempt to get the uncooperative hardware to work properly.
