R5E vs R5E U3.1 Bios Question

On the R5E U3.1 Support page the latest BIOS listed is 1502 but on the R5E support page they're up to 1701? Confused, thought the boards were the same except for the USB 3.1. Can the R5E 1701 BIOS be used on the R5E U3.1? I would imagine it could, but hesitant up upgrade it. System running fine as it is. I know, just leave it be... Just curious about the why the boards have different bios's
