You recently purchased your Asus MOBO with a Ryzen 5600X. The X570 series works with the 3000 and 5000 lines, but does the MOBO need a BIOS upgrade? Yes, it might. How do you update the BIOS? I can walk you through the steps. This is your first attempt—just let me know!
It needs a BIOS upgrade. Use an empty USB from the ASUS TUF Gaming X570 Plus site. Download the newest BIOS there. If you don’t see a flash button on your motherboard panel, you’ll likely need a 3000 series CPU for the update. Check if you bought it online or in store—online orders usually work, but physical stores can assist. If not, consider getting a 3600 model and returning it after installation.
The device's age can determine if it runs with a 5000-series BIOS. Try starting it up—if it fails to boot, consider updating to a newer BIOS version. Consult the manual or support site to confirm compatibility with CPU-less updates, or obtain a 3000-series chip if needed.
