Your MSI B450 tomahawk works with this CPU on your desk, but the BIOS version listed is 72C02v1I. The build number shows 1.I, which matches your requirement. The extra zero might be a minor formatting change—just confirm the BIOS file name ends with "1i" for your motherboard. Your PC has been running for 30 minutes; it’s safe to proceed with the replacement once the cooling cycle completes.

Begin your PC by pressing the spam or DEL key to access the BIOS settings. The correct BIOS version should be displayed at the top left corner.

Does it really count if the PC is fully cooled before adding a new CPU?

No recent BIOS updates were released on 7/25/2022. The one required was launched on 08/15/2022, with an earlier version dating back to 2020. Updating to a BIOS you already have shouldn’t cause issues.

Turn it off and begin working. If you recently completed intense benchmarks or games, the GPU/CPU cooler may feel warm to the touch—let it rest for a while. Regarding your second point: Updating to the same BIOS version is perfectly okay. Feel free to ask more questions or seek help—I'm here to assist.
