I am building a new system with the zen 3 cpus so I will need to do the bios update.

Will a ryzen 5 1400 work with a b550 or x570 motherboard so that I can use it for updating bios?

X570 is compatible with 2000, 3000, & 5000 series only. B550 is compatible with 3000 & 5000 series only.

That said a lot of the newer boards allow for updating the BIOS without a CPU.
