Question

Why should the BIOS of my device be updated?

 


Answer

A BIOS update may be necessary for various reasons. Primarily, it is about security improvements, such as the elimination of security breaches and protection against system vulnerabilities. Hardware compatibility also plays a decisive role. Modern BIOS versions support newer processors and improve compatibility with the latest hardware components. Another important aspect is performance improvements. Current BIOS updates optimise system processes and increase the energy efficiency of the computer.
There is a clear answer to the question of when an update makes sense: Only, if noticeable system instabilities are detected, after the installation of new hardware components or if the manufacturer expressly recommends an update. Only then should an update be carried out.
