Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard bios issue with AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 3.7 GHz 12-Core Processor and usb header support

Is there a *MUST* requirement for a X570 motherboard, and it being an ASUS TUF board?
Even for a Ryzen 5900X, a B550 board will still be powerful enough to support it.
I can see why you are looking for those USB adapters, because you want to use the USB 3.0 and the USB Type-C ports.
The X570 TUF that you picked our earlier natively has the USB 3.2 Gen1 header, but not the USB 3.2 Gen2 (aka USB Type-C) header on it.
To meet your USB 3.2 header and WiFi requirements....
1) Get the -PRO instead of the -PLUS. Has all the USB 3.2 Gen1 and Gen2 connectors and WiFi. Also has the USB BIOS Flashback feature
2) Gigabyte B550 Arous Elite AX V2.
B550 chipset based motherboard instead of X570. Again, all the requirements that you need, including the USB flash flashing.
Actually less expensive.
3) Gigabyte X570S Aorus Elite AX.
Basically suggestion #2, but using the X570(S) chipset.
4) Two B550 MSi options also available.
MSi MPG B550 Gaming Edge WiFi, Msi MAG B550 Tomohawk Max WiFi.
Both have the features you are looking for (i.e. USB, WiFi) and USB BIOS flashing.
I guess, just brand preference, if you have one, and the looks / aesthetics or the board, etc.
Personally, I prefer ASUS, but my last 2x boards have been Gigabyte, and happy with them for the most part.
Most recent board being a Gigabyte B550 Aorus Pro AC -- since the case did not have USB Type-C (i.e. USB 3.2 Gen2) was not a requirement.
