Does ASUS ROG STRIX X99 GAMING MOTHERBOARD need a BIOS update for the i7-6800k?

I'm asking this because on https://pcpartpicker.com it says "Some Intel X99 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Broadwell-E CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions."

Is this true?

Yup. It may need a BIOS update to support that CPU. It needs BIOS 1701 wehich is the 2nd to last BIOS update

Core i7-6800K (3.4GHz, L3:15M, 6C, HT, 140W, rev.R0) ALL 1701

But since the mobo supports USB BIOS flashback, you can use that
