There's a message put out by Blizzard to update BIOS when you have a 13th or 14th gen Intel processor.
I checked the FAQ on the Asus support page on how to safely do this because I don't like messing with BIOS.
There's some options on how to do it, one of them using a program to install in Windows - AI suite 3 - and to other way is to directly access the BIOS on startup and update from there.
I installed the AI suite 3 first but the EZ installer component is not there so can't update via that. Then I went into the BIOS and 3 times in a row, while navigating to Tools and select the BIOS file on my USB drive, it freezes and I need to reboot the PC.
I'm pretty hesitant to proceed, I don't want to brick my PC and I'm not too tech savvy so no clue how to proceed from here.
Any suggestions? Should I even bother with the update at all?

Asus PRIME Z790-P WIFI (Bios update ????)
Videos
Hello,
I noticed an update as of 4-19-2024 for my BIOS, so to my understanding, I would need a 2.0 USB flash drive, 8gb only, but would 16gb be ok? Because local store just doesnt carry 8gb (weird, yes, they only have 16gb's)
Also, this is the first time updating any BIOS, but I would like to take advantage of any added features, fixes, etc , and with the correct guidance I might be able to achieve that ....
Hello everyone! I'm currently running a workstation with an Asus Z790-A WiFi motherboard and an intel core i7 13700K CPU, my current BIOS is version 1220, unfortunately I've been experiencing stability issues, especially while rendering, CPU reaches 100 degrees and dram led gets red. My waterblock and fans are working as expected, my ram is working properly as well. I've read rumors about bios settings not imposing a limit on CPU voltage on older versions. So, what bios version do you recommend I update to? And what is that intel ME thing? (I'm totally new to this, haven't updated in my lifetime)
Thank you all!
I would like to update the bios because I have the 14900kf and I heard that updating the bios can help with an error or the heating issue. How would I go about updating it?
Theres this bios/firmware download on the site.

Is that all I need? How should I go about updating it?
Hi, just wondering if a BIOS update is required to use an ASUS PRIME Z790-P WIFI with intel i9 14900k? I'm asking because I'm only getting a black screen. Thanks. :)
