You're looking for the correct BIOS version for your Acer Verizon X2631G motherboard with an Intel i-7 4770 CPU. Could you confirm the exact model number of your CPU and motherboard? That will help determine the appropriate BIOS update.

Since you have the CPU ready, it’s best to install the newest release (unless you already have it installed).

Continue using what's available until problems arise. The latest update will usually work best, as Acer suggests with version P21.B4.

You're currently running an i5 4440, but you've upgraded to an i7 4770. The issue isn't about the upgrade itself, since your friend suggested it might be a BIOS problem.

Make sure to refresh the update and test the functionality.

It was disappointing. I looked later to see if they were the same socket, and they were, but... well, I hope you can return it.
