Which is more scary for you? Flashing your motherboard bios or GPU bios? POLL

[chilicheeseburger]

As long as you're not flashing a custom / unofficial BIOS I don't think it's scary.

GPUs have BIOS updates?!

 

Also, Gigabyte has a nice tool to do it while in Windows, so it's no sweat.

The sweat doesn't come from doing it through the BIOS or Windows. The sweat comes from the fact that if you have a power failure during flash, the bios chip becomes a little brick.

I never update my gpu bios rather i dont know how to

I flashed my laptops bois and my gpu in that laptops bios to make it overclock more longest 3 seconds after restarting

GPU, many motherboarsds have user replaceable BIOS chips. But I once fryed a 4 year old laptop BIOS and did it through windows and windows failed right in the moddle of it....

I can blindflash my GPU from memory I've bricked it so many times. Definitely board but I have bios flashback

[MiracleMan]

neither... if you have a spare graphics card you can always flash it back, no matter how much you fucked up and you can get new bios chips for motherboards for like 15 bucks

I've done it with motherboard for updates, so that's not really that worrying. I've never done it with a GPU though. I honestly don't even know how to.
