Question Bios upgrade needed or not?

Hey guys,

Have a noob question on bios upgrades. I'm running a striker II formula with bios rev 902. 1101 is available to upgrade to but I've read the list of fixes and enhancements and see nothing that screams for me to upgrade. My thoughts are not to worry about it as there doesn't appear to be anything to gain.

Is this the correct line of thinking or am I missing something here? I'm not having any troubles with my system, I just want to get the most out of it.


thanks in advance.

I nthe realm of BIOS updates, I follow this. If it aint broke dont fix it. I have heard lost of people who go through a BIOS update only to have it go wrong. Its not hard to do now but you can still mess it up.

Ok cool, that's what I'm thinking too. I guess I needed someone else to backup that thought.

thanks.
