Hello, you've noticed many motherboards claiming compatibility with the AMD Ryzen 5 3600, but some mention needing a BIOS update. Are there particular models under €100 that work without it?

Most current B450 boards function properly. Simply request the shop to refresh it if you have concerns.

There is an MSI B450 from the MAX line that comes with BIOS updates suitable for Ryzen 3rd gen. The ASRock B450M and gigabyte B450M S2H are recently released models, each receiving BIOS versions that support modern processors. All X570 boards work with these chipsets, though they may exceed your price range. Consider the MSI B450-A Pro MAX or the B450 Gaming Plus MAX instead. If you need the MORTAR MAX model, check local availability.

It depends on the specific situation. MB size can influence performance, but it's not the only factor. The actual storage capacity and how it's used are more important.

The B450M-A pro tends to have a weaker VRM compared to the ATX model, though this isn't always the case with motherboards. For instance, the B450M mortar matches the performance of the tomahawk in terms of VRM.

Yes, the "M" in B450M typically stands for MAX.

When M is positioned after B450, it indicates a micro ATX setup. The motherboard you mentioned includes "MAX" in its name, ensuring compatibility with the third generation Ryzen processors. It seems the term "mortar" has various names—such as "B450M mortar" and "B450 mortar"—but they all refer to micro ATX configurations.
