G522 - Wisdom of Bios updates

I recall in the past that Bios updates were discouraged unless there was a specific problem the user hoped it would correct. 

Is that still the advice?

When Bios updates become available for the G522, should I update the bios, even if I have no complaints about the PC functionality?

    Your call. General advice is don't fix what isn't broken. If it's from us I would. We'll test all the components previously used on any build before we release a BIOS. Updating from an ASRock BIOS is where you run into the risk of an issue. You can always request a BIOS on this forum if you're looking for some new feature or AGESA version.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
