Check if Ryzen graphics work with B550 motherboards. Some sources mention support levels like 5000/4000G and note compatibility issues for certain boards. You asked about the Ryzen 5 5600G on models such as Asus Prime B550M-K and Gigabyte Aorus Pro B550M, especially whether the Vega GPU is supported.
They focus on most B550 boards currently, mainly since retail APUs weren’t available until recently, making it unnecessary to invest time in supporting these CPUs. Both boards list the 5600G on their supported CPUs sheet, so a BIOS update might be needed but it should work. I suggest choosing a board with BIOS flashback if possible, like the MSI B550M-Pro VDH, which costs around $110 and includes BIOS flashback and built-in WiFi.
You might have to upgrade to the newest BIOS for your 5600G or 5700G. That was what I needed to do when setting up my Asrock B550 Pro4M with a 5700G.
Well, some dont have a video out, most will have a bios update, and those cpus will work, just without the IGPU
The B550 board without display outputs is typically the B550 board used in automotive applications where no visual interface is required, such as certain infotainment or control modules.
They might only require a BIOS update. The most affordable boards could lack BIOS flash with CPU features, making them unusable right out of the box. If present, you just need a USB drive containing the BIOS file; online guides are available. BIOS compatibility for these devices is expected to appear in BIOS releases around mid-July 2021, so it's possible to find a unit that left the factory before then today.
