I have an intel i3-4130, and I want to upgrade it to a intel i5-4690 (non k)
My system information says that my bios version is AMI 80.19, and the bios date is 7/18/14.
SMBIOS is version 2.7.
Do I have to update my bios in order to install the i5 4690?
Or will the 4690 work without the bios update?
