Okay. But I've heard that you should try to avoid the Beta version.

Then use the linked bios on the initial list you posted. Far right column.

Hi there.

 

I'm looking to upgrade my Ryzen 2200G --> Ryzen 5 3600. I'm currently using the MSI B350M Mortar as my motherboard. MSI's website says it's compatible with Zen 2, but there has been no BIOS update since?

 

I'm a little confused on this one. Can anyone clarify this for me?

There was a bios update last month?

They probably just haven't updated that list.
