I’m preparing to assemble a PC using a Ryzen 5 5600G. Since my motherboard needs a BIOS update for this processor, I’ll likely have to flash the new BIOS before installing any parts. Many guides suggest doing this before putting in the CPU and RAM, or even before mounting the motherboard into the case. My thought is to build everything together and then use the flash BIOS button to update the board once all components are connected. Would this approach be feasible? Could it be simpler or more effective than updating just the motherboard and power supply?
