    Intel Skylake bug causes PCs to freeze during complex workloads


    Seriously. Nothing wrong with updating a mobo bios. There can often be many updates included or more stability or just new features added. Not to mention most new boards these days come with two bios's. If you somehow manage to bork one which is unlikely, you can just shutdown the pc, change to secondary bios and boot up.
    The secondary bios almost always has a function to copy onto other bios as a means of fixing a borked bios.

    And I have seen no ill effects from the skylake bug myself. I have read that Intel will be releasing new microcode to mobo OEM producers so that with a new bios flash problem is resolved.

    Yeah I cannot reproduce the bug. I haven't run the tests for hours on end but nothing out of ordinary going on. Guess I'll leave well alone!
