Hi:

 

There is only one newer version...F.23.

 

Looking at the release notes for the update, it wouldn't improve performance, or add enhancements.

 

Here is what the release notes indicate...

 

Fix and enhancements:

- Provides enhanced security. NOTE: HP strongly recommends transitioning promptly to this updated BIOS version which supersedes all previous releases.
 
If you want to update the BIOS to F.23, here is the link to the driver support page for your notebook's model series.
 
The update can be found under the BIOS section.
