You're considering setting up a Ryzen 3 3200G system with three motherboards: Asus Prime B450m-A, Gigabyte B550m, and Gigabyte A520-S2. You want to know which one is compatible without needing a BIOS update.

Consult the manufacturer and visit their websites for support information. Compatible CPUs are usually listed on dedicated pages. The B450 board likely supports the 3200G from the start, while the A320 is outdated and may require a BIOS update. The B550 might not be compatible since it uses Zen+ instead of Zen 2, but verify this on the mentioned pages.

I mistakenly entered the wrong motherboard model. It should be A520, not A320. Apologies and thank you for your assistance.

Many B450 models arrive pre-installed with Ryzen 3000 chipsets. Check the packaging for "Ryzen 3000 ready" confirmation. If it doesn't match, contact the manufacturer or vendor to request an update. The A520 and B550 don't support the AGESA standard for Zen + APU configurations (Ryzen 3000 APUs). For these three models, technically only the B450 Prime A can be used, though it's a less desirable option—still capable of handling a 3200G.
