Hey guys.
So i will be upgrading my CPU with the i5-3470,and i need to update my BIOS version to P1.70.
My MB is the Asrock H61M/U3S3.On their website,it says that for the Ivy bridge cpu-s,i need to have the P1.70 version and some other drivers.

Those other drivers are also on the Win7-64bit drivers page on the website,but they are not there on the WIn8 page,and im running Win8 right now.
So i have a couple of questions.
Do i need the rest of the suggested updates?
Can i just install the latest P2.40 version of the BIOS,and use the new CPU,or i need the P1.70 version?
Thanks for your help.
