Upgraded my HP P6-2327c's APU from a A8-5550 to the newer Richland, A8-6500. Installation went easy: no beeps, no random shutoffs, etc.
My CPU fan generally was quiet on the A8-5500, but now I can hear it at a steady hum with the new A8-6500. My guess is that I need to update my BIOS.
So, I downloaded CPU-Z and got the following data:
------
Motherboard:
Manufacturer: MSI
Model: 2AE0
Chipset: AMD ; A55/A60M/A88 FCH ; Rev. 00
Southbridge: AMD ; A55/A60M ; Rev. 11
LPCIO: Fintek ; F71808A
BIOS:
Brand: AMI
Version: 8.14
Date: 12/18/2012

I have only upgraded my BIOS once, on a 5-year old laptop. If anyone could lead me in the right direction to where I can upgrade this computer's BIOS, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks.
