Is this a good motherboard+cpu deal?

AMD RYZEN 5 2600 6-Core: $149.99 + MSI X370 GAMING PRO CARBON AM4: $139.99 all for $210, or do you guys think there will be better deals during Black Friday/ Cyber Monday?

Also the ryzen 1700x and 2700x prices are dropping  so you could technically wait for it

Can't I just do a BIOS update prior to installing the cpu?

I saw this week at a Canada Computers only a $10 difference between 1800X and 2600.  They are $220 and $230 CAD.  You might be able to find a deal on first gen 8 core for around the same price if you think you might need the extra cores.  Keep in mind though that the 1700X and 1800X have no stock coolers.  

Ryzen 2600 - Sapphire Pulse Vega 56 - Corsair Vengeance LED DDR4 3000 C15 2x8GB - Corsair Force MP500 NVMe PCIe M.2 240GB - 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB -
