[SOLVED] Can Ryzen 5 3600 be used with A320 Motherboards?

[Hellfire_helix]

So, I am planning to use ryzen 5 3600 with Asus Prime A320M-K Motherboard, I've already looked up on the motherboard's website and found that It has the CPU support for ryzen 3000 series, I was just curious to know If This combo would be ok or would there be any issues in future.

And I want to make it clear that I am not concerned about the RGB headers and stuff neither I am into overclocking.
So Kindly suggest me If I an going correct.

According to the support page -- https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/PRIME-A320M-K/HelpDesk_CPU/
It can but you have to have at least the 4801 BIOS. The 4801 BIOS was released almost a year ago. BUT unless the box has a Ryzen 3000 compatible or similar marking, it might not work out of the box.
If you don't have an older Ryzen, it may be the case that you will get a board with an incompatible BIOS. You might have to take it into a PC shop to get the BIOS updated.

I'll take care of Bios and all those stuff I've a friend who has got a lot of Ryzen series CPUs I'll get it managed from there but I wanted to know that will the motherboard serve the CPU as it should? And Can I be assured of not having any issue in the future If I build on this motherboard?

I don't predict the future. Life doesn't come with a guarantee.

Dear. I am not asking you to be a omniscient being part of this forum and considering you as a friend and my PC build buddy I just wanted to know as per the perspective of a geek that If this combination would be technically sound or not. That's all I meant

I personally wouldn't use an AB350 motherboard with a Ryzen 3xxx CPU. The oldest I would recommend is a B450. The AB350s were specifically the lowest end motherboards available at the time. For example, that motherboard only has a 4 pin supplemental CPU power source. That means the power subsystem is not very robust. Will it work, probably. Will you want to overclock and be prevented because of a poor motherboard, also probably.
