In today’s article, I will guide you on how to update the Gigabyte BIOS quickly and accurately. This process is not overly complicated but requires precise handling to avoid unfortunate issues during the update. In this guide, I will be using the Gigabyte X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING motherboard to update the BIOS, but the steps are similar for other Gigabyte motherboard versions.

Guide to Updating Gigabyte BIOS 2020

 

What is a motherboard? How is it made?

Check the BIOS version information on the motherboard

First, you need to determine which version of the motherboard you are using with the following simple steps:

  • Go to the search box on the taskbar and type msinfo32.
  • Then, click on System Information.
  • msinfo32

    Next, find the BIOS Version/Date information to check your motherboard version and download the appropriate BIOS update.


How to Update the GIGABYTE BIOS

Before starting the update process, keep in mind that you will need an internet connection (to download the update) and a USB drive to save the update.

Download the BIOS update

The first step is to download the BIOS update from the GIGABYTE manufacturer’s website. Here, we are using the X470 AORUS ULTRA GAMING motherboard. Click on the download section and save it to your desktop. You can search on Google using the following syntax: gigabyte + "your motherboard name" + bios.

Move the BIOS Update to Your USB Drive

After downloading, extract the files. You will get files similar to the image below, which you should copy to your USB drive:
Note: Your USB drive must be formatted in FAT32/16/12.

Restart the Computer and Enter BIOS

Once you restart, ensure that your USB drive is securely plugged in. Get ready to press the DEL key repeatedly to enter the BIOS (if you don’t press it quickly enough, the system will boot into Windows).

Enter Q-Flash Mode

Inside the BIOS, you will see a tab for Q-Flash at the bottom. If you don’t see the tab, you need to press F8 to enter the Q-Flash menu.



Select the BIOS Update File from the USB

When in the Q-Flash menu, you will see two options: “Update the BIOS” and “Save the BIOS.” Choose “Update the BIOS.”

On the next screen, select the extracted file from the USB (even though we extracted multiple files, the BIOS will only display the correct file needed for installation, so don’t worry about selecting the wrong one).

 

chọn file cập nhật bios

Start Updating the BIOS

The next step is to begin the BIOS update process. Simply click the “Press To Start” tab, then sit back and enjoy a cup of coffee. The BIOS update process can take more than 5 minutes. Once completed, the system will automatically restart and boot into your operating system.

After the BIOS Update

After the successful BIOS update, select “Load Optimized Default Settings,” then choose “Save and Exit.”

Conclusion

That’s it! I have just guided you through the process of updating the BIOS on a Gigabyte motherboard. I wish you success, and if you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment below.
