I acquired his motherboard last year with a Ryzen 3000 processor. The link is provided. I also heard my statement changed, and it seems the Ryzen 4000 will work with the B450 platform. If people are expecting good performance, I’m considering upgrading to see if this board meets the needs.

Provided a BIOS update is available, you'll be able to upgrade—though this is subject to MSI's policies.

it suggests only certain models were included. some might still be missing. even if included, it could come out later than the Ryzen 4000 release.

It seems likely it's acceptable, but I'm worried about the BIOS from MSI. They introduced the "B450 GAMING PRO CARBON MAX WIFI" (though I can't locate it for sale) which swaps this board (same hardware, just a larger chip) so I'd expect limited long-term backing. For more insight, adding 3000 support would require them to use their simpler BIOS version and drop compatibility with certain CPUs like the Athlon x4 970/950/940, A12-9800/9800E, A10-9700/9700E, A8-9600, and A6-9550/9500/9500E.
