Sure, clarify your steps. It’s best to run the BIOS flashback before assembling the board so everything is ready. After flashing, make sure to discharge the MMO capacitors completely—remove all power from them. This helps avoid any issues during the build. Let me know if you need more details!

It's not crucial. I might try it first just to make adjustments easier later if needed, but it doesn't really affect the outcome. It's something I wouldn't stress over. You can keep holding the power button briefly after the flashback ends if you're concerned, though the caps on motherboards are small enough they should fall away before installing the CPU.
