Should I upgrade my bios on A8N-SLI Deluxe?

[Minotar]

I am debating whether or not I should update my bios... What does everyone think. The only issue I get once in a while is some sort of blue screen video error on bootup, but it rarely happens, and other than that my system is smooth and crash free... Could updating to rev 1007 solve that occasional blue screen error? Just curious🙂

Well, any intelligent person can see that what I am getting at is, "Are there any issues with the older bios that could cause blue screens and if updating the bios is beneficial or not." Since you are being a smartass, perhaps you can enlighten me to your personal experience with certain bios versions... This is the motherboard forums, so I expected a little more knowledgeable people on here that could site some examples and list some pros and cons... Am I mistaken?

I am running on the 1007-004 beta bios and I have had no problems.

If you have a problem then it is usually worth updating.

You can always go back if needed.

Update to 1007. Its easy a cake when you use the ASUS windows BIOS flasher program. No more having to boot with a floppy!
