I was referring to the onboard programming bios/uefi and assumed everyone would realize that and everyone still calls it when asked accessing the bios by hitting F whatever key while booting. My bios as I refer to it as is uefi with legacy option which I never have used the legacy.

Besides that the high temps seem to be an avoided topic when discussing AMD cpu's in favor of overclocking ability and unless your using the higher quality ram then the overclocking is not as high as they say it is and sometimes just a couple hundred mb's where as my intel is 2.7 and runs at 3.3 with no overclocking on the motherboard itself and the next cpu will be much higher ghz in turbo mode no overclocking needed.

The only caveat to the UEFI systems I have encountered are if the vendor locks in an operating system. There are still some systems I have come across that require you use windows to upgrade UEFI software, mostly laptops, ultra books, and such. Desktop boards are usually able to be upgraded directly from the UEFI interface.
