Check your Asus or MSI motherboard’s AMD Ryzen 3000 compatibility here
Asus has officially confirmed which of its AMD Ryzen motherboards are going to get a BIOS update to make them compatible with the next-gen Ryzen 3000 processors. In total there are 35 of its 300 and 400-series motherboards which are set to get the update for AMD Zen 2 compatibility, but notably it’s only the X470, B450, X370, and B350 boards in line for the new microcode. Anyone sitting on a bargain-basement A320 board is going to have to upgrade their mobo if they want to ride the next generation CPU train.
The BIOS updates haven’t been dropped as of yet, but each of the motherboards on the list will definitely be receiving a Ryzen 3000 BIOS once it becomes available. You’ll be able to download the updated firmware from your motherboard’s product page, and if you need help getting your BIOS updated then we’ve got a handy video guide below. Ain’t we good to you. Be warned, it does contain a Jacob, however.
If your AM4 motherboard isn’t noted on the Asus BIOS hitlist then belay that wailing and gnashing of teeth for now. Your dentist might well be grateful for the work, but all is not lost just yet. This 35 board list isn’t the final update notice, Asus has said that “additional motherboard models will be added to the list soon.”
