IMPORTANT:
Since I made this video, I have read a report of a theoretical security risk in the firmware updater included in many Gigabyte motherboards, including the one in this build:
However, no exploitation of this risk has been reported, and Gigabyte have issued an advisory with a BIOS update fix:
I have personally also disabled “APP Center Download” in the BIOS, which stops the updater running. I would advise doing this as follows:
Press “Del” on the Gigabyte splash screen on boot to enter the BIOS.
If it says “Easy Mode” at the top of the screen, press F2 to enter “Advanced Mode”.
Go to “Settings” (top menu, third across) and click on “IO Ports”.
Click on “APP Center Download and Install Configuration”.
Double click the “APP Center Download and Install Configuration” orange bar, and set to “Disabled”.
Click on “Save & Exit” (top menu, on the right) and then “Save & Exit” and select “Yes”.
Sorted. The firmware updater with a potential security risk is now disabled.
