Only Flash the BIOS if you are having issues or it is a must have for a particular reason.

Best to get the current drivers from the ASUS site.

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 5, 2016

Only flash the BIOS if needed , because bricking the board is possible.

RamonIR · Sep 5, 2016

1 MORE thing when i change my cpu and mobo will i have to re-download any apps or will it automatically clean itself?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 5, 2016

You will need a clean install , for a new board and CPU.

RamonIR · Sep 5, 2016

so delete everything before i add the new parts?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 5, 2016

Backup if you need to , then perform a clean install , formatting is needed.

RamonIR · Sep 5, 2016

back up my info and then install my parts but whats formatting?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 5, 2016

That's what Windows performs on a clean install , it formats the drive.

RamonIR · Sep 5, 2016

oh ok so i dont have to be worried about formatting, windows does it for me when i install it ?

Dark Lord of Tech · Sep 5, 2016

Yes it will ask you and it does it for you.
