Should I reset BIOS - not flash

[antonv]

Recently built a new rig. Had issues in the begining - ram voltages, hdd setup & audio panel wiring. now that I figured everything out over a week or so, im debating whether to reset the bios or not.

When I first got started, I didnt set the bios to load optimized configuration. I would assume that the mb has a slight learning curve. Im just concerned if it picked up some bad habits during my week of trial and error.

came flashed with F11

cpu-intel i5 760 lynnfield
mb-GA-P55-UD3
vga-evga GTX 460 superclocked(factory oc
ram-g.skill ripjaws DDR3 dual channel 1600 2gig x 4 (8gigs)
psu-OCZ fatality 550w
hdd- sata seagate barracuda 80/ sata seagate barracuda 160 (8500rpm??)
cd- 2 nec dvd burners ide - primary & slave

On a new build I always clear CMOS and load optimized defaults, then go from there.
