Nope, I'd update the BIOS first as some of the newer QuadCores are only supported in later BIOS Revisions.

I know I am late on this. I have this mobo with a Q9550 running unstable for to long.

I did the bios update required.

After installing compatible RAM modules I still experienced unstability (pc freeze) even though the RAM was set to factory setting manually.

The problem could only be the CPU settings. I always had these settings set to [auto]. So I underclocked the q9550 to 1066mhz FSB. Now all is fine...
