Many people find RDR2 on PC difficult or impossible to play, especially with certain configurations. For MSI B450 users, updating the BIOS might resolve the issue, but there are risks—upgrading could cause compatibility problems since your processor is a Ryzen 3600 and beta BIOS isn’t recommended. In short, does changing the BIOS affect performance? Is a beta BIOS safe? And what steps would you take to update it?

Upgrading to a newer BIOS version still supports 3600 unless you're using an older one. If you're unsure, avoid modifying beta versions—these are still under development and require testing for stability. For RDR2, don't update your BIOS unless necessary, as the issue might not be related to them. It's common for games to have many bugs at launch, like GTA V did. Wait a week or two and keep updating.
