I'm currently running bios (v. 0801) on an asus ix hero with no problems but would like to do a clean win10 install on a new ssd drive. If I want to keep the same bios version (801) since it has been stable for me, should I install the same drivers from my previous build or can I install updated drivers (chipset, sata, audio, vga, lan) with the old bios (v. 0801). Will there be problems using newer drivers with an older bios?

Hi neo8175

The latest drivers will work with any bios version.

ASUS sometimes releases bios's for hardware compatibility but if everything is working fine now, you shouldn't encounter any problems with the latest drivers.

I would recommend updating to the latest BIOS with the whole Intel MEI fiasco and stuff.
