[SOLVED] Does B450 support the new ryzen 3rd gen cpus out of the box?

I am going to build a pc with a ryzen apu, but i'm not sure if the new ryzen 3rd gen is supported on b450 motherboards out of the box.

Unlikely. Those released after Ryzen 3000 series will likely be updated to be compatible.

If you can find an MSI B450 MAX motherboard it will support the 3000 series CPUs out of the Box.

Most other motherboards will require a BIOS update unless the seller updates the BIOS for you.

ASRock's B450 motherboards are (supposedly) now shipping with a compatible BIOS and a "Ryzen 3000 Ready" sticker on the box. But you'll probably need to buy from a brick-and-mortar store, so you can inspect the motherboard before you buy it. That's essentially impossible with an on-line vendor.
