Generally speaking, yes: if it isn't broken don't fix it.
However, when upgrading the CPU, sometimes BIOS flashes are required. For example, I had to flash my BIOS on my custom-built machine to support proper overclocking on my CPU. I know that's not what you're doing but the point I'm making is that nothing was technically "broken" my machines just didn't support what I wanted to do.
As far as problems are a result of the newer BIOS: there is always a potential issues. However, there usually aren't any issues unless you've got a medley of custom components in the machine.
