My main gear is Asus P8Z77M-Pro + i5-2500k + stock intel cooler, 4GB@1333mhz of RAM and an Gigabyte GTX 770 WF OC.
Currently BIOS version 1908.
I'm asking because I have very bad experience with BIOS updating mainly on MSI Board. I bought an MSI B75A-G43 + i5-2500K with its latest BIOS version installed which started causing stricky POST BOOT (some time boot... sometime start loop... randomly... and at the end looped for ever until now). Now my Asus P8Z77-M Pro is not saving the settings on AI utility (DIGI + VRM, etc) like the case fans loss they settings and don't spin I have to set them again, my RAM go back to default clock whenever I boot it up and more stuffs. Some time it says "New CPU INSTALLED" My concerns is that my CPU is little old to combine it with very new BIOS version from 1155 MOBOS which can lead to a deadly LOOP issue as verdict of my research after what happened to me. Should I update the BIOS or not? Thank you.
