Upgrade from Ryzen 5 1600 to Ryzen 5 5600X using a B450 MB motherboard.
You're considering a upgrade from your current Ryzen 5 1600 to the Ryzen 5 5600X. The ASRock B450M Pro4 supports newer BIOS versions, but it only works with 2nd generation Ryzen or better. Since your processor is from the first generation, you'll need to check if a compatible BIOS exists for that model. If not, you might need to look into alternative solutions or wait for a BIOS update that matches your hardware.
