[SOLVED] Is the ryzen 2700x compatible with the msi b450 tomahawk?

I checked on the motherboard's website and it only mentions the "PRO 2700X", but on their x470 motherboard it has both the "PRO 2700x" and the "2700x"

b450: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B450-TOMAHAWK-MAX#support-cpu

x470: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/X470-GAMING-PRO-CARBON#support-cpu

Yes both the B450 Tomahawk/X470 Gaming Pro Carbon are compatible with the 2700X.

Why do they only have the PRO 2700x on the B450?

Idk, ask MSI. The B450/X470 boards will support all 1st/2nd gen Ryzen CPU's right out of the box. With updated BIOS they will support 3rd gen.

Edit: Actually the B450 MAX boards support 1st, 2nd & 3rd gen right out of the box.
