Question about compatibility
You're facing a compatibility issue with your Ryzen 5 3600 upgrade. The motherboard requires BIOS version 7A38v2I, but your current BIOS is 7A38v28. The MSI website shows no update for v2I, which means the BIOS might not be supported as-is. You should update your BIOS to the latest version compatible with both your CPU and motherboard. Check MSI's official support page or contact their support for confirmation.
