Following the reveal of the new AMD Ryzen 5000 “Zen 3” processors, several motherboard manufacturers have released BIOS updates to let you drop a Zen 3 processor on an X570, B550, or A520 motherboard. AMD confirmed that the current 500 series motherboards, based on the AM4 Socket, would support Zen 3 processors but require a BIOS update. Here is the complete list of all motherboards that received a BIOS update ready for the Zen 3 Ryzen 5000 processors.
ASUS, ASRock, Biostar, Gigabyte, and MSI are the first manufacturers to confirm support for the Ryzen 5000 Zen 3 CPUs support on their A520, B550, and X570 motherboards.The X570 is the current AM4 flagship chipset and powers the best AMD motherboards in the market with full PCIe 4.0 support. B550 motherboards are affordable compared to X570, providing the best value for your money, while the entry-level A520 motherboards are geared towards budget upgraders.
According to AMD, Zen 3 support requires AGESA v2 1.1.0.x or AGESA v2 1.0.8.x firmware (at least v1.0.8.x) to get your motherboard ready for the 4th Gen Ryzen 5000 CPUs.
AGESA v2 1.0.8.x firmware is the minimum requirement to get your motherboard ready for Zen3. Most brands, including Asus and Gigabyte, have already published BIOSes with the AGESA v2 1.0.8.x firmware, which you can download to prep your board for Ryzen 5000. Ensure to check for a BIOS with AGESA v2 1.0.8.x or later.
We’ve made the process easy for you by indicating the correct BIOS version with Zen 3 support for each motherboard. Please check the article periodically for updated BIOSes and links.
For the avid gamers and enthusiasts, AMD recommends a BIOS with AGESA v2 1.1.0.x firmware to get the best experience possible from the Zen 3 processor. At the time of writing this article, only MSI has updated their BIOSes with AGESA v2 1.1.0.x, but still in beta stage. We expect MSI to roll-out the final versions in time with the Zen 3 launch on November 5.
This list only includes A520, B550, and X570 motherboards. AMD is still developing the BIOS updates for X470 motherboards, and there is also the time needed for manufactures to ensure the firmware is compatible with their motherboards. The earliest Zen 3 support will come to 400-series motherboards is January 2021.
Kindly make sure to select the correct BIOS for your motherboard model and refer to the manual for upgrading BIOS to prevent any damage. If you’re using a Gigabyte motherboard, ensure to download BIOS for your specific revision. Each Gigabyte motherboard has a revision number printed on the PCB. Very important!
