Default Update the Bios first thing?
Wondering if I should update to the latest bios when I first fire up my new rig in the next couple days?

I have a EVGA 680i A1.

My System Specs

Default at least check it....
I just burnt (2.9V is bad for RAM) $200 worth of RAM because my new mainboard had an ancient BIOS version on it. At least check what BIOS version you get and upgrade if it has problems or hails from the precambrian era.
