Your Asus X570-E board still uses the older BIOS 1201. Updating to version 5003 is possible, but skipping intermediate versions can pose risks. Using a FAT32 USB stick and the built-in BIOS update feature is a common method, though compatibility isn't guaranteed. There may be issues if the system doesn't support newer updates or if there are conflicts with existing settings. You should be able to revert to an earlier version if problems arise, but it depends on the specific failure point.

Review the annotations for intermediate releases unless they specify needing step-by-step changes. Likely will have to create everything anew from the BIOS. It’s usually better to adjust directly within the BIOS rather than relying on the recovery mode. The chance to revert depends on the supplier, which is usually detailed in the documentation.

You want to refresh the bio because you think it needs an update or a better representation of who you are.

My bio is quite old—version 2019, update 1201. I’m experiencing problems with the PCH fan (operates at 3500rpm and is noisy), and the BIOS update feels delayed. If the PCH issue isn’t fixed, I might have to consider a replacement board.
