If you want to buy a new motherboard, then it's likely that you will need new processor/ram and maybe even other components to go with it. It's not a good idea to replace the motherboard of a computer.

If you want to update the bios software on your current motherboard, it's still not a very good idea. The updated bios will probably do nothing to make your computer work better. Updating the bios is also a risky process, if there is a mistake the motherboard can be ruined. You should only update the bios if you need to update it for a specific reason.
