You can't update the BIOS w/o a compatable CPU. Sometimes you can get a new bios chip sent to you from the mfg. In that case you simply swap it out. YOu also may get a board with the correct rev preinstalled.

Or you could hedge all your bets, and order your cpu/mobo from Monarch, I believe they update the bios for you *if necessary* before it ships.
