Anything Ryzen 3000 Desktop ready. Most boards B350, X370, B450, and X470 come with the bios updates preinstalled to work, they will say "Ryzen 3000 Desktop Ready" on the box or it will be listed in the description. It's been long enough the old stock of non-updated boards should be gone and any board you buy should be ready to go out of the box, however it's not a 100% guarantee. The best way to know is to contact the seller and ask if the boards they are shipping out have the update before you buy it. If you are ordering the DS3H from Amazon it should have the update as the last two of that board I have ordered from Amazon have had the updates, but it doesn't hurt to double check with the seller first.

As long as it has the update preinstalled it will work, pretty much all of the old stock of boards without the update is gone, most boards that work with 3000 are shipping out with the update and are ready to go even B350 and X370 boards, OP will just want to double check with the seller if it is new stock with the update or old without it.

Any MSI B450 MAX, or other mobos or any b550, or x570 mobos. 

I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience. I'm going to be incorrect at times.
