Good morning, can someone please help me with this new update? I'm so confused and Asus CS is pretty useless.

I know i need to update the chipset with intels update. On the asus support site in the downloads area, there is a small bios update that doesnt have a version number that says "ME Update Tool". Then there is a chipset update that looks to be the new intel update. Is the bios update actually a bios update? or just an intel tool? I'm not really sure what my update process is supposed to be.

Here is a link to the downloads page. Just select W10 64bit in case you wanted to take a look

the ME update is just that, it updates the Management Engine (ME), not the BIOS. The latest BIOS update is 1009. If you want to update the BIOS too, update the BIOS first to 1009 than the ME.
