the motherboard MAY need to be flashed to the proper version to support the 3900x BIOS version 4804 to be exact.
nothing else jumps out at me.

available in differing sizes the 512GB seems to be a heck of a deal right now

The motherboard BIOS is what allows it to communicate with the system memory, the processor, expansion slots, etc... As newer processors are released, the motherboard often needs an update the the system BIOS in order for it to be able to communicate with them. Depending on how long the motherboard you purchased (are going to purchase) has been sitting on the shelf or in a warehouse, it may not have the required BIOS version installed for the newer processors.

If this is the case, you will likely need an older, natively supported, processor temporarily installed in order to update the BIOS on the motherboard so it can communicate with the newer processor.

the BIOS or Basic Input Output System, is software written to a chip on the motherboard. the BIOS keeps the hardware settings for the motherboard when the system shuts down. RAM settings, Networking, Audio, CPU everything on the motherboard is contorlled in the BIOS. the version of the software installed determines what the motherboard can do, in this case work with the 3900x. the motherboard was released before the 3900x was designed so the motherboard needs a software update to recognize and use the newer CPU, kinda like a driver for the GPU, otherwise the motherboard will see it as a non compatible CPU and will not boot.

to update the BIOS you need a compatible CPU (compatible with the version currently installed) after the update the system will see and use the 3900x.
directions for flashing are in the manual and described in detail.
