I about to buy this 939 socket dual core opteron and was wondering if I needed to do anything like try to update my BIOS or can I just pop it in just like that?
it.. depends on whether or not the BIOS currently loaded on your motherboard supports dual-cores or not. that's really all there is to it. :( you can see the BIOS revision while the computer boots usually, so just google it up or look at the manufacturer's site and see.

AFAIK, all of the MBs based on the nVidia NF4 Chipset already started off being ready to run with an X2 (same chip, just less scrupulously binned after manufacture than an Opteron).
