Question Ryzen 3 1200 and ASRock AB350M

[Ringo882019]

I ordered a Ryzen 3 1200 with an ASRock AB350M in a combo deal. I have them but now I'm just waiting on a GPU I also ordered (RX 570 8gb) until I can use it. Will this combo be compatible out of the box or will I need to update the bios in order for it to boot?

Yes , that combo should be compatible out of the box.

The only incompatibility issue I would concern myself with is making sure the selected RAM in on the motherboard list.

Thank you for the quick response. I thought it would be but I wanted to be sure, one of the reviews on the mobo even said its compatible but I just now saw that, so I'm definitely not worried about it anymore.

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Glad to help. No need to worry.

Well I just checked the QVL list for my mobo and the model number for my ram (F4-2400C15S-8GVR) isn't on there. But I've also read not to trust the QVL too much. I got the CPU, mobo, and ram in a combo deal on newegg. Should I still worry? Also how can I check to be sure it's compatible?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

I would try it. Should work regardless of QVL lists. Ripjaws usually runs on Ryzen at lower speeds which yours are.

 

[punkncat]

I see quite a few of the similar model number listed. Nothing to do but try at this point.

If you do have issues look into this set. Ryzen benefits from faster modules.

Should they work together?
