how do i do that IS IT EASY
 
As far as I know, you need a supported CPU in order to update the BIOS. So it would be very useless to buy that CPU and motherboard combo if the BIOS version is not F5. Updating is easy. Just boot into the BIOS and it should have an update feature. It is as simple as that. But you can't do it without a supported CPU. So hence, it's useless.
