[SOLVED] Ryzen 5 2600 with A320M motherboard?

[RandomBae]

So I´m upgrading my system from to a ryzen 5 2600 with a
GIGABYTE GA-A320M-S2H
From what I understand I would need a bios update for it to run my motherboard.
Would I need an older cpu or could I update it with flashback updates with a usb drive or over the internet?
I´m on a very tight budget, that´s why I´m going for that one. Thanks!

Yes, you'll need a compatible CPU installed to update the BIOS before using the 2nd generation Ryzen.

AMD did have a program in the US where they would send you s chip just to update the BIOS, then you'd send it back to them
