Default MSI k9a2

I have the MSi k9a2 and was wondering if its worth it to update the bios to 1.3

I havnt had a single problem, and wonder if i should just leave it alone since im not having any issues.

Wiith BIOS's it's generally accepted unless it fixes something big, don't bother; if you get a bad download then flash the BIOS it'll cause a lot of problems.

Yeah. I never have done BIOS flashes on any of my computers. And there was "apparently" an issue with Phenom that i have never come across which i call bs but anyways thats besides the point.

I just wanted someone else to agree with me so i would feel better about it. thanks man.

If you have Dual BIOS, then you'll be a bit safer.

Don't flash unless you absolutely positively need to.
