Hey all, I'm just a day away from beginning my build and I need advice on whether to flash my Bios on the Asus X79 Sabertooth or leave it alone. I've read several articles that cover the pros an cons of changing your Bios. I can understand not messing with it if you are currently using a well functioning machine. But, what about prior to a new build? Should I go ahead and put the most up to date Bios (using the cool Bios flash feature) on the Mobo prior to install or see how the Bios works that came already installed in the Mobo?

NZXT Switch 810
Asus Rampage V ED10
16GB Corsair Platinum 3000mhz
i-7 X5960, 3.0Ghz-3.5Ghz
Intel 750 800GB NVME-SSD
Corsair H115i CPU Cooler
2 Asus Strix 1080 8GB SLI
Corsair AXi 1200 PSU

I don't see a problem on a new build. Just make sure you have the files to flash back if there is a problem or be able switch over to a different BIOS.
