I'm upgrading my old mainboard with a new CPU for the very first time. I asked around about hardware here on the forums and got some input, and the friendly advice to make sure my BIOS is the latest.
I've been trying to find out about this m'self and I'm going bonkers, no info anywhere and I know even less as it is .
This is my mainboard: http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_nforce_740a_sli_us.html
This is my old CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3500+ 2200MHz single core
This is the CPU I'm upgrading to: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103727&Tpk=HDZ965FBGMBOX
This is my current BIOS version:
- Manufacturer: Phoenix Technologies, LTD
- Version: 6.00 PG
- Date: 08/08/2008
Will I need to update my BIOS, and if so, how? I can't even find anywhere to download it.
Cheers
