does b450 come preinstalled with current bios?

if i bought this would it be ready for a ryzen 5 3600/1600 without needing a bios update

Unless it says right on the box that it has an updated bios. Nope.

You'll need either a motherboard with Bios Flashback capability or get one of the MAX boards from MSI. But even those may not be compatible with newer steppings of CPUs without a bios update.

You could try calling them and asking before you drive out.
