[SOLVED] Are there any motherboards that won't need a bios update to work with the AMD 5900x?

I am looking to eventually upgrade my setup, but it seems that most people who have gotten the 5900x and a new motherboard with it needed to update the bios before the CPU could even work with it. Most of them had a previous gen card that i guess worked with the motherboard. Are there any that don't need a bios update? Seems like most on pcpartpicker need a bios update beforehand.

Most b550 motherboard comes before ryzen 5000 came out, so you should ask for the seller to update the bios to the latest, or you could buy a motherboard that have bios flashback button and flash the bios without using anything but psu connected to the board.
Here's the list.
