ASUS
This is the UEFI firmware for ASUS desktop motherboards across the ROG, Prime, and TUF ranges, built on the AMI foundation. It sits on the board and controls boot behavior, overclocking, and platform settings. Match the file to your exact board model and revision, and prefer the built-in EZ Flash tool inside UEFI setup, which reads the firmware from a USB stick and is the most dependable way to apply it.
Gigabyte
This covers the UEFI firmware on Gigabyte desktop boards, including the AORUS and UD lines. It governs the same low-level platform settings as any board firmware and is applied most safely with the built-in Q-Flash tool. Because Gigabyte boards can share a model name across revisions, confirm the file matches your specific revision before flashing, since a mismatch can leave the board unbootable.
MSI
MSI desktop boards use the Click BIOS interface for their UEFI firmware, spanning the MPG, MAG, and PRO ranges. It handles boot order, memory profiles, and platform features. The preferred update route is the built-in M-Flash tool, which loads firmware from USB. Confirm the exact model string printed on the board so you apply the file intended for it rather than a similarly named model.
Dell
This is the OEM system firmware for Dell desktops and laptops across the OptiPlex, Latitude, XPS, and Inspiron lines. It is customized by Dell and delivered as a signed update package chosen by your Service Tag. Because it is tied to the exact machine, only the Dell package for your Service Tag is appropriate; a chipset vendor's generic firmware is not generally a substitute.
HP
HP system firmware covers the EliteBook, ProBook, Pavilion, and OMEN families, supplied only by HP as a signed package matched to your product number. It runs the platform initialization for these business and consumer machines. Enter the product number on HP's support site to get the correct file, and expect settings to reset to defaults after applying it.
Lenovo
This is Lenovo's OEM firmware for ThinkPad, ThinkCentre, IdeaPad, and Legion systems, identified by machine type and model. It handles boot, security, and platform settings specific to each chassis. Lenovo firmware is not interchangeable between machine types, so confirm your machine type before downloading, and apply it with the machine on steady power.
