Updating Bios for vishera cpu

[scarabking117]

So, I am currently looking at the https://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-motherboard-ga970aud3p
and I will be using an FX-6300 with it, however it needs a bios update to use that cpu and I don't know if i can update it just by booting it without a cpu in the socket and using a flashdrive with the update or....... Someone enlighten me.

You can use your cpu out of the box as your board already supports it on F1 revision of bios (aka out of the box version)
