Hey, welcome to the forum The BIOS needs to be F10 or later for the Ryzen 5000 series to work in your motherboard.  It may have shipped with that BIOS or later depending on the revision. It should say Ryzen 5000 ready on the motherboard box with an orange sticker or like this in the picture.

Hey thankyou for answering, Yes, the box says AMD Ryzen 5000 Desktop Ready is that means I’m good to go or do i still need to update first? I don’t know what’s the bios version when it’s new or it’s in the box. I’m so sorry I am new about PC building.

I also visit their website and the latest bios version of my motherboard is F18a but i checked the CPU support bios and the since bios version of Ryzen 5 5600 is F14

Yeah that would be it. If you need to identify it physically, iirc its on the motherboard's serial number sticker on both the box and the motherboard (usually near the CPU or 24 pin power).

Hi so i checked my motherboard and I see that my rev version is 1.4 and I check again the CPU support list and I see that it is different bios version with the first one, so basically the F14 is for rev 1 to 1.3 so mine is 1.4 and I checked the since version of my mobo is FB.

Yeah its supported on release BIOS. No BIOS update needed then.
