Gigabyte does not make it easy to find your BIOS version to download.

Apparently I have version F20d. I guess the next one is F20g?

You can check your current BIOS version with CPU-Z - motherboard section.
Yes - F20g is the latest.

Note - if something goes wrong - you flash wrong BIOS version or power gets cut during update,
then your motherboard is bricked and you won't be able to restore operation easily.

Which CPU ? those vulnerability issues are only for 5000 series Ryzen but not serious enough to bother with.

Be careful flashing the BIOS a bricked motherboard can be recovered with today's Motherboards but it is a painstaking process. Backup the current BIOS onto a USB drive before flashing in the event of a flash failure. Please post your results. I wish you success from an old school PC Builder and Gamer.
