[SOLVED] Bios 32 Mb vs 64 Mb, specifically for 1150's B85 chipset

[AJNameS]

Hello, right now I am taking a look at some motherboards from Asrock, and I see a little difference, that makes me wonder if it really matters.
So the motherboards are socket 1150: B85-dgs, -hds, -pro3 & -pro4 versions. The slightly older among them, the pro4 and -hds have 64 Mb AMI Uefi Legal Bios, while the -dgs and pro3 have a 32 Mb-one. At the same time recent days I saw a high-end mobo for s.1151 with 128 Mb bios. So does this mean something more serious in general - like the bigger bios being stronger? Or is it just a smart calculation of the slightly newer but still kinda' simple b85 mobos, that they wouldn't need bigger space for the bios instructions? Or else?

bigger bios mean it can stored more cpu spec.

Well, maybe I understood, mb not. Does this mean that they have created a smaller-sized bios due to the fact they've understood there aren't going to be manifactured any more cpus for the socket from that moment on?

And, let's say it as a whole, in general: does the bios size matter in such cases like mine with these mobos?
Cuz if we are talking about a system, which there's not going to be created new cpus for, and is actually not going to be manually overclocked, I have the feeling it doesn't.

yup. for old motherboard. just get one with the feature you need. and availability
