Posted May 28, 2020 Hi everyone, is there an easy to test the bios to see if a cpu and motherboard are compatible without building the whole computer? I have a b450m and a Ryzen 5 3600, and don’t want to find out they are incompatible after I build the computer. (What I really need to test is if the motherboard has the latest bios). Thanks for any and all help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any and all help! If the motherboard box has this image on it, it will work with the Ryzen 5 3600: Basically all boards will have that image, at this point.
