I basically have bought 2 CPU’S (Ryzen 5 3600 & AMD A6-9500) that we’re incompatible with my motherboard. I should have read more into updating the bios on my B450-I and now I basically just need to find a motherboard that doesn’t require a bios update straight out of the box. I want to use the Ryzen 5 3600 with my build but just need something cheap, from amazon, and compatible with my cpu without a bios update. If anyone could tell me what’s the best for my cash it would be much appreciated.

Any MSI B450 with MAX at the end is ready for Ryzen 3000 series.
