I dont see a sticker on the box or motherboard but on the website of the motherboard it says, "AMD introduces the latest Ryzen™ 2000 series processors to provide the computing power for budget gaming need. GIGABYTE's full line of AMD AM4 chipset motherboards perfectly fit the latest AMD Ryzen™ 2000 series processors computing performance and integrated graphics output. Users can enjoy the benefits brought by AMD Ryzen™ 2000 series processors by just simply downloading and upgrading the latest BIOS."

it on the website because with the latest bios it support 2000 series, but if the mobo was manufacturer before the bios update, it not going to run 2000 series CPU/APU

it doesn't have the sticker, it doesn't support it without bios update.
