Default Desktop computer question

Yeah , I'm still dickin' around with my desktop . I've decided it's time
to upgrade to a quad core in this comp , Asus M2A-VM mobo , socket AM2
currently running an Athlon X2 2.3 Ghz processor .
I have determined (from the Asus support website) that this mobo will
support a Phenom 9150 quad processor which is socket AM2+ , but I'll have to
update the BIOS . The question is , do I update before I install the new
processor or after ? Either way , the suggested method is to flash it from a
USB stick . I've found the suggested BIOS on the Asus website , and can
download it at any time .
Actually , I might do the server comp first , same mobo but a slower
Athlon X2 processor . If I'm gonna brick one I'd rather it was that one ...
