Discussion Advice on BIOS update

[thomasfl1]

Hello i recently bought an used mobo a320m-k. I need to update BIOS for my ryzen 5 5600 to work. Mobo had a ryzen 1600 on it before. My question Is what cpu should i get to update BIOS. It doesnt support cpuless update afaik. Im afraid of doing an update with a diferent architecture cpu leading to my 5600 not working. I read somewhere it needs to be a specific cpu, but logic tells me once you manage to get into BIOS options with any cpu, thats pretty much it. Any advice Is appreciated. Ty.

You just need a compatible CPU for the BIOS version on it now.
