..because I can't think of anything that is.
I swear, my finger has been hovering over the 'Flash BIOS' button for an hour now, but all I can think of is imagining the stress, pain and expense if it all goes wrong...bad BIOS flashes are the stuff of nightmares for me, that anxious wait for the progress bar to creep up, then that terror filled moment when it does the first reboot.
..I also have in the back of my mind the supposedly appalling Asus RMA policy, which would probably mean I'd just rather buy a new motherboard than go through that and wait weeks for a fixed Mobo to return.
My Mobo is running the original launch BIOS from April 2014 yet I feel this is unfinished business when it comes to the smooth running and final upgrade to my PC, but I'm so nervous about doing it that I have kept putting off until now.
Reading the update notes to the BIOS revisions its clear that various fixes have been implemented, OC stability fixes, NVMe supoort added, and support for 5th Gen Broadwell, but still I can't help but think of the old saying 'if it aint broke dont fix it'.
Justified fears or paranoia?
