Hello everyone,
I am a computer noob building my first PC. On my PCPartPicker parts list, it says "Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs" under the Compatibility Notes. I have three questions.
1. Is it truly needed?
2. If so, does this mean that I have to choose a new motherboard?
3. If not, how do I go about installing this BIOS update?

Thanks!
