Generally, most AM4 components should function, but chips with more than six cores might exceed the board's capabilities and cause performance issues.

The list claims compatibility with up to 16-core Ryzen 5950x, but I recommend sticking to processors with a TDP under 65 watts. A 5600x3D would be ideal if available from Microcenter, otherwise consider a 5700 or 5600x. The VRM lacks heatsinks and has limited power delivery, so temperatures will rise quickly if the CPU exceeds about 80–100 watts. Higher power chips will throttle to protect themselves, limiting performance beyond what these CPUs are designed for.
