b450m ds3h assistance
I'm setting up my first PC using a B450M DS3H motherboard. I'm considering either a Ryzen 5 2600 or a 3600 processor. I'm unsure if the 3600 will work with this board or if I'll need to update the BIOS. Online searches have given conflicting advice, so I want a definitive answer. The logo on the case might matter, but I just need clarity. Good luck!
The motherboard should support the Ryzen 5 3600 when using BIOS version F40 or later. You can verify this in the BIOS settings or with tools like CPU-Z under the "Mainboard" section. If you have the original case, look for the "Ryzen 3000 ready" mark—it’s not essential, but confirms the correct BIOS version.
