Hey guys! Just wanted to ask if you think most 450 motherboards sold now already have the new BIOS that would instantly allow for Ryzen 3 CPU's already installed on them or if you think there is still a good chance of getting a motherboard with an older BIOS that would require an older AMD CPU to flash the BIOS. Mainly been looking at this motherboard, solely because its cheap and its got 4 RAM slots which is an important detail for me since I need a fair amount of RAM. https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/dQgz...b450m-pro4 Thanks for the read guys!

It varies by retailer; checking Amazon reviews and product details often shows updated BIOS information. If purchasing elsewhere, there could be older stock without the latest BIOS updates. It's best to verify the description or contact the seller directly.

When considering in-store purchase, select the badge indicating "AMD Ryzen Desktop 3000 Ready." This confirms compatibility with third-generation Ryzen processors, eliminating the need for updates.
