    Hi there!

    Are you sure they didn't say drivers? Your video drivers are out of date.

    Drivers - GeForce


    Updating a GPU BIOS should only be done is some very rare cases and is not something endusers should do without proper instruction

    But GPU Bios could be a good thing for our 560M ...

    Anybody got info on this ? Do someone manage to bypass Asus protection to up voltage ?

    before any bios update you should update your driver first, nowadays most stable 290.53 and you may download from nvidia website, once you update then you may give such try for bios update overclock etc.
