Not really. There are fail safes in place. BIOS'es are modular and the init part usually is not touched during flashing. If an issue occurs you will get a screen saying BIOS checksum ERROR and to provide a media with the BIOS file to reflash. Now the tricky part is that some really old platform require the floppy disc or will read USB device but only in special file format that never is stated anywhere (for me I discovered that only old SD card formatted in DVB-T tuner works the magic). BIOS file also has to be specially named for this recovery to work (like bios.bin) for example but it depends on the BIOS chip manufacturer. Then you also have mobo's with dual or even triple BIOS and BIOS selector switches.
On newer motherboards, I mean like past 2016, you can download and install latest version of bios from the bios. No need to google your motherboard, just go to the bios, go to update, click Update via internet, and if you have ethernet cable plugged in, it will download latest bios, and update automatically.
1 thing i learned when troubleshooting my pc related to bios problems is always run a benchmark before updating it to see if it affects performance in a negative way.
I remember when i was 11 i broke my android tablet because it wanted me to update from android jellybean to lollipop and so i did and it never turned on. Now fast forward today i am traumatized and never updated the bios in my pc
See, if I was too design the bios, I would make it store the bios flasher first, then the rest, so in case of a bricked board you can still flash it, just with a limited ui or feature set.
first time I did a bios update my pc black screen and nothing happened for like an hour, so i realized my only option was to shut it off, booted it back up, and it popped up with like "Are you ready to update your BIOS?" and it worked and i was so relieved
That’s not necessary at all. I always use my windows installer pendrive to update my bios. Maybe older platforms are different but on lga1700 and am4/5 it works with whatever drive.
@@Grstrangler Yeah, I think the problem just ended up being my MSI MPG B760I (itx) motherboard died. Which apparently those ones just up and do sometimes. I'm lucky it didn't kill my cpu.
Just updated my bios. An ssd I had would stop being seen randomly while useing my computer. This kicked me out of games I was playing that were running on the ssd. A restart would fix this temporarily, but i eventually had enough and updated the bios. When it booted into windows after the update the power button didn’t work. I proceeded to have a mini panic attack thinking I broke the mother board during the update somehow. But thank the lord it went back to normal eventually. Crossing my fingers hoping that the ssd works now.
In my country, we have power outage at random. It's as if homer simpson works at the eldctric company just having a field day flicking switches to see what it does.
It irritates me how there’s still no integrated update option within the bios on consumer systems. As an IT that works with enterprise HP’s a lot, they all have the capability to search for, download, and install updates from the bios itself with internet connection. So convenient.
it is kinda weird yes. I have an old Optiplex 790 from a system-pool and another PC with a top of the line Asus ROG-Strix Mainboard. HOWEVER the Optiplex-MB can be updated with a simple Download from Dell website while the high end Rog Strix motherboard needs a USB-Stick with correctly installed files on it in the correct usb-slot of the mb. It is so overcomplicated even though it's a high end mb.
They don't? I just built my first PC and I'm pretty sure the bios was updated with the motherboard software. I'll have to check to be sure but I could swear it updated the bios.
It's not rly that weird. Let's take an AMD rdy Asus b550. That board has to support like 30 different cpus and an endless configuration of other parts. Integrated systems that IT might work on are streamlined and ready for business output so the updates are probably alot more tailored to the system
@gamer8622 when you go to the website for the bios its literally a single file for the board, it doesnt have a file for every chip and every ram or whatever. What point are you trying to make. (I can only imagine that that if they tried to make a bios updater they would screw it up because all MB software is super trashy)
I literally am all the time ready to pull the trigger on a new case and fans but installing fans for me seems a lot harder than it looks. I'm pretty confident about basically everything else
Updating it if you decide to freshly install windows can be an option for example. The only thing which I would avoid would be updating a BIOS if the system is currently actively used and needed
Im so sick of ppl saying this garbage. This isn't true. Bios updates often bring rly good quality changes over time to help efficiency, lifespan of the board, heat, and more. If you've been running a pc for a year or 2 and never updated your bios, you're almost ALWAYS going to see some type of benefit in doing so and the risk of bricking your system is almost 0 outside user error. This bullshit started a while back because you had youtubers all scared to tell ppl to update their stuff out of w.e perceived liability they may have, hence Zachs disclaimer. I honestly can't think of a reason NOT to update your bios unless the update brings literally nothing to your system at all, like processor support or something that doesn't pertain to your parts.
@@gamer8622 No they dont . If you arnt an early adopter of a new chipset you get nothing from it . For the normal every day user its not worth doing ever . Saying there is no risk is stupid to tell anybody . In 99% of all cases you wont find any differents in updating your bios
@@gamer8622 I don't care if you're sick of it. I'm an engineer and I'm here to tell you, you're wrong. Sit down. You should only update your bios if doing so will serve some purpose, it should not be done 'because reasons' off the cuff.

this is the one thing that always case anxiety to essentially all PC owners, last i updated mine, i was a mere few seconds away from getting my mobo bricked by a unannounced power outage when the power company shut down the power to swap one of my neighbors aging and faulty power station(?) think thats the right word for it, its not the fuse box but the other one you normally/should find next to it, i almost quiet literally where shitting bricks when power went out just as the bios finnished updating, at the time it happened, i would not have been able to afford a new one.
had to do this to optimize my RAM. I know it looks scary, just follow the steps and be cautious. If there are power outages for a storm or high heat, wait for those to pass.
I was scared to update my bios, i only HAD to do it because my old AM4 MOBO had to be updated for my 5900x cpu to work. Mind you i hadnt updated my bios in 4 years since that. The update went fine! cpu Worked and i updated it again to a more current bios a few weeks later , runs great!
You should also make a video about bios flashback Has saved a lot of asses when people bought a CPU that needs bios update and they don't have an older zen one lying around It can fail at times, but it doesn't brick the mobo somehow. Also, it literally *un-bricked* a motherboard that I considered dead / CPU was dead and there are no Threadrippers anymore to see if another one works
Can confirm bricking your motherboard if it turns off. Happened to me during an update and literally somone crashed into a box that regulated power to my neighborhood. Luckily, no one was severely hurt, but yeah... my motherboard reaped the effects 😂
glad to know I’m not the only experiencing PC troubles. I reseated my RAM because my PC was acting up by BSODing and freezing, but when I turned on my PC, smoke came out from the RAM slots. And the worst part was this was a 7600X with 32GB of DDR5 RAM
Hey guys just a pro tip here, some motherboards may include software that can update bios without the USB stick! A great example of this is gigabytes bios utility. :)
Usually some motherboards have a 2nd bios chip as backup it reverts back to the older version if it fails, yet i don't know if that's true but it did happen to me once
One thing my brother told me (as I will be building a pc soon and he built one a while ago and pcpartpicker told me I’ll need to update the bios) the usb stick NEEDS to have nothing else on it, otherwise it could mess up your pc in some way
Love your videos, can you make one about advantages and disadvantages between AMD Adrenalin and Geforce Experience (or whiever its called now). Im goong to purchase either RTx4060 or RX 7600 and seeing how they perform similarly it probably boils down to driver and admin tool support.
Another thing is if your PC is running fine and there isnt anything like a vonability that needs to be fix dont update your bios at all most the time there is no real point compaired to all the risks involved
Ideally you should update you BIOS at noon on a clear day, alone with the door locked, and with absolute certainty that neither your internet or your power is going to be shutoff for any reason.
Even though it’s dangerous, windows 11 always FORCES a BIOS/UEFI update, (technically, if you disable the “firmware” in the device manager windows can’t update it) but if you have a battery (for power surges or you’re using a laptop or other handheld) you shouldn’t worry as much, just worry about random malfunctions that cause your PC to power off
In 2018 my back then 6 year old brother was laughing and playing around while i was doing a cpu upgrade, i finished it and i was updating the bios until he ran into my room, clicked the power supply power switch and ran away in chuckles. I lost a good am4 motherboard 🤧
Does the RTX 4060 Ti really sucks ? I planned to buy it earlier but after watching some TH-cam videos, the benchmarks were actually good. So literally I am confused right now... Till not bought a gpu yet. My budget is 450 dollars. And if you can suggest me a "fps per dollar" gpu from amd for intel i7 11700K ? 😅😅😅
You forgot the most important tip. You should only update your bios if you have a specific reason to do so. In most cases there is very little benefit to just update your bios for the sake of updating, especially given its the riskiest type of update.
if you have a driver larger than 32gb you have to use external apps to format your usb to fat32 as windows dont support it if you don't format your usb to fat32 bios will not recognize your usb therefore making you unable to select the file from the usb

Another important tip is to read through the update notes. Some BIOS' require you update to specific versions before doing the most recent.

Additional details and recommendations:
The danger of updating your BIOS is that if the process is interrupted, for example, with a power outage, it will render the entire motherboard unusable. The only way to fix a corrupted BIOS is to remove the BIOS physical chip and solder a new one.
Tips: There is nothing intrinsically wrong with updating your BIOS. Don't be afraid to do it. At times, it's actually necessary. But it's a good idea to have a failsafe in place. I recommend using a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply)/backup battery to allow the process to finish even if you have a power outage.
No, you can buy a programmer for 5 bucks and burn new bios directly to the chip
Not really. There are fail safes in place. BIOS'es are modular and the init part usually is not touched during flashing. If an issue occurs you will get a screen saying BIOS checksum ERROR and to provide a media with the BIOS file to reflash. Now the tricky part is that some really old platform require the floppy disc or will read USB device but only in special file format that never is stated anywhere (for me I discovered that only old SD card formatted in DVB-T tuner works the magic). BIOS file also has to be specially named for this recovery to work (like bios.bin) for example but it depends on the BIOS chip manufacturer. Then you also have mobo's with dual or even triple BIOS and BIOS selector switches.
Or if you own a dual bios mobo
Or just buy a mobo with bios flashback? 😂

Usually your motherboard’s brand will come with a built in utility software where you can download and update bios from there.

I think the biggest nightmare I can think of is when you’re updating your bios for your motherboard and the power goes out.

And added advice, don't upgrade your BIOS if your are at risk of having a power outage, like during a windstorm or a thunderstorm.
i need a longer form video of this explaining how one updates this with a first time build
For gigabyte motherboards, check the version number of your board. Also do not skip to the latest version to avoid instability issues.
I’d like a video on when SHOULD you update a hardware bios vs leaving it as is 😊
90% of the time when getting a new Mobo OR new CPU
You rarely need to update it unless they say it fixes a major problem or security.
In my country, we have power outage at random.
It's as if homer simpson works at the eldctric company just having a field day flicking switches to see what it does.
you need a back up battery supply, you dont need to use it 24/7 just use it when updating especially the bios
