Go to solution
Solved by OddOod,
Welcome to the forums!
First, I would like to confirm that you had a cpu cooler on the mobo while it was updating the bios, is that the case?
Second, try the 3600x. It's possible that the bios update went through and it's just waiting on a new CPU
Third, it's possible the bios settings are in a weird state. Follow these instructions:
Fourth, it's possible the bios update failed, but is in a recoverable state. Insert the 1600, put your USB stick in the Flash BIOS Port (bottom of the stack closest to the Flash BIOS button) and follow the instructions
Fifth, it's possible I've missed something and you're still safe
Sixth, it's possible the BIOS update failed in an unrecoverable state and the mobo is bricked
