[SOLVED] Does updating GPU drivers update the GPUs bios too?

NO. VBIOS is different from the drivers. They are not connected with each other. Drivers won't update the card's BIOS. You need to manually flash the card instead.

Btw, there is no reason to flash the BIOS. I don't recommend people flashing GPU BIOSes, unless they are encountering a certain hardware issue that is KNOWN to be corrected by a new BIOS revision, and they must know how to do it properly as well as revert from a bad flash.
