Did you re-install your drivers after you flashed the BIOS?

Did you restart your machine?

soo um, the problem seems to have gone - the only thing I needed to do was to reset the clocks in MSI Afterburner and everything now works perfect

This post might be helpful to anyone who might tackle this problem.
