GPU and CPU BIOS, is there a difference?

[Devronicthetonicman]

Hello,
I am curious, is there a difference between a CPU/MoBO BIOS and a GPU BIOS?
Is the GPU BIOS just the drivers you get from lets nvidia if i have an geforce gtx 770?

The mobo bios looks after a lot of stuff - hard drives, cpu, memory, etc, The GPU bios (or drivers) just look after the graphics card

Okay so if I have the latest Nvidia driver for the GTX 770 series my GPU BIOS is up to date correct?

No driver does not update bios but why would you want to update graphics cards bios ?

I have no idea...it just seems like something we should to do to keep BIOS up to date?

Yes - the driver actually is a few different files that update the GPU "firmware". So this is the gpu 'bios'
