Does the Asus Tuf Gaming X570 Plus require a BIOS update for Ryzen 5600x (5000 series)?

I just bought my Asus MOBO with a Ryzen 5600X. I know that the X570 series are compatible with the 3000 and 5000 series but does the MOBO require a BIOS update? And if so, how do I make a BIOS update? Can any one give me instructions on how to do so? This is my first time doing this.

Yes it requires a bios update. Get a USB thats empty, go the the ASUS TUF Gaming X570 Plus webpage. https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/TUF-Gaming/TUF-GAMING-X570-PLUS/HelpDesk_CPU/ and download the latest bios. Then i believe you may be screwed, you will need a 3000 series CPU for a bios update as i do not see a bios flash button on your IO panel. Did you order the board online or at a physical store? If physical store you could ask them to update your bios and they should be able to just fine, if not you may have to get a 3600 or something and update it then return it.

Depending on when the mobo was made it may already have a 5000 series compatible BIOS. See if it POSTs, if it won't then you probably need a newer BIOS, either check the manual/support page to see if it supports CPU-less BIOS flashback, or else you'll need a 3000 series chip to run the update.

I bought it from a store and unfortunately it only supports Ryzen 3000 series and it will need a Ryzen 3000 chip to run it. I read the manual also, there's no Ryzen 5000 supprot, so I will need to go back and let them install it.

OK they installed my CPU on my MOBO and they said that it didn't need a a Ryzen CPU 3000 to work. Either way they installed of my parts, however, my MOBO doesn't recognize my Samsung NVME 2.0 1TB. What is the solution to this?

 

My normal SSD and Hard Drive appear however the NVME SSD doesn't.
