Thread 105808204

when is the last time you have updated your bios /g/?

My bios stopped receiving updates in 2013.

>>105808244
let me guess, intel xeon?

Never done it. My system works just fine so why would I update BIOS and risk it fucking something up?

>>105808204 (OP)
after CVE-2024-36347

>>105808275
so your motherboard will not give 2 volts to your cpu instead of 1.3

>>105808204 (OP)
A few days ago. I rebuilt an old computer and updated to the latest bios while at it.

>increase voltage so cpu/motherboard dies sooner
No thanks

>>105808204 (OP)
a few months ago, and its a terrifying experience on AM5 motherboards with MSI
they put our more BIOS updates a month that I put out turds and my turds are more stable.

>>105808314
these latest gen CPUs sure are fun arent they?
now that the board makers and the CPU makers dont share information until the last second

>>105808362
it is not the user who increases the voltage. It is the bios thinking that it should send 2 Volts ore more to the cpu instead of the usual 1.2 or something due to a bug

>>105808204 (OP)
When I upgraded my CPU to one that the current BIOS didn't support.

>>105808516
>he boughted msi

>>105808204 (OP)
when I assembled the computer
it looks like it is about 2 years ago
everything worked after that so I haven't touched it

>>105808204 (OP)
Over a year ago I guess, I don't remember exactly when. Everything works nicely with the current BIOS so I haven't really bothered since.

>>105808204 (OP)
No clue, but I'm not an updooter. I don't fix what isn't broken.

I think I updated to the latest BIOS when I built my current PC. That was in 2021.

my uefi is 15 years old

>>105808204 (OP)
a couple months ago when i upgraded my cpu

The general rule of thumb from the old age is
"if your bios is working properly don't fuck with it"

>wipes all your settings
Never

This thing is a beast, eventually I need to buy the toptier AM4 CPU and push it to the limit

I updated it on an old laptop and now I get a shitload of errors when I boot up Debian lol. I had to turn the shit off to make the TTY usable otherwise it would just spam errors the entire time until I launched x server. I guess the moral of the story is to never update anything ever under any circumstances.

>debian
deprecated

ive used debian and it was a buggy piece of shit. the audio drivers didnt work for screensharing so i used apt to change them and they stopped working completly
kde is more buggy than explorer
had to go through forum posts to figure out how to install nvidia drivers
and wayland was a piece of shit the whole way through
