Searching for unclear details while moving around. Planning to set up camp at the microcenter for a 5900x configuration. Doesn’t seem like this device has a hardware BIOS flash button like my current gigbyte board—just checking for similar features?
The TUF series boards lack a bios flashback feature (button on the I/O back panel). Ensure Agesa 1.0.8.0 is installed, which was available before the announcement date, or update to 1.1.0.0 on release day. This requires a Ryzen 3000 series to proceed with the board update. It's uncertain if the version shipped with 1.0.8.0 is confirmed, similar to B450 boards that don't explicitly state readiness for Ryzen 3000/5000.
