My personal opinion is that you should always have the latest BIOS installed - and yes, I recommend that you do so before installing your O/S. Very important, before installing the 1809 update, ensure that you have the latest BIOS and the latest available Graphics driver packages installed.

Just so you know, Visual BIOS is simply a program that supports the modification of the BIOS configuration, nothing more. It is NOT the BIOS itself.
