You complained about off–topic content, yet you respond with something that I'd consider spam—contributing nothing to the conversation. But that's whatever.
The thing I actually want to respond with is—there's no need to insult them. Maybe you weren't trying to, but the comment definitely comes across that way to me. Everyone has different skill levels. If someone has purchased an item this expensive they may be uncertain and want to do things correctly, without landing themselves into a poor situation. There's no need to denigrate them for asking a question about something you consider to be obvious.

As Nichrome said—it will be fine. Most, software versions can also be downgraded, if needed.
I assume that you are concerned with the possibility that each patch is its own compartmentalized code. I've seen that happen in weird video game launchers, where you download the game and then it patches in sequence until it reaches the current version, but that's uncommon. Most software versions are built as a stack by adding new changes on top of the older versions, and then sending it out as a complete package.
As far as the bloatware—I found value in installing MSI Center's Dashboard tool. The software may be bloat, but the changes I made apply without the need for the software to run actively. As long as you don't have it set to automatically run, and your settings load as you would expect them to, it shouldn't impact you directly. Perhaps there's some background stuff it runs that I'm not aware of, but if you are running a motherboard this expensive then it's likely you have the other hardware to overpower any nonsense that MSI Center would create.
