Hello,
I just recently did this build and wondering whether or not I should update the bios to 1.50, as that appears to be the latest for this mobo. Here are the specs:

Please note I have been building systems for years now and also work in IT, so please spare the "if ain't broke don't fix it" comments. I'm just inquiring if it's worth updating it to the lastest bios for maximum performance, especially for the video card. After breezing through the instructions, the PCI-E 3.0 slot will only give you those speeds if you're using an Ivy Bridge processor which I currently am. No CPU overclocking has been performed and system is stable at the moment. Yet, I may be interested in doing that at a later time and may just do an on the fly OC via bios as I'm not too versed with doing incremental changes to voltages and don't wish to experiment. I'll most likely leave the GPU alone and keep it at stock. OS is MS W7 64 bit SP1. Any comments/suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!
