Question Ryzen 5 9600X and ASRock B650I Lightning WiFi

[roman_triller]

Hello, people!

I bought an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X and the ASRock B650I Lightning WiFi. The manufacturer website says, the core name for the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X is Granite Ridge, but it's strange that Granite Ridge is listed under Raphael, which is the core name for the 7000 series. Is Granite Ridge and Raphael the same? Because there isn't a BIOSUBU file for Granite Ridge which would be required to update my motherboard via flashback to make the motherboard compatible with the CPU, but for Raphael. If I hover over "Global" to download the BIOSUBU file, the .zip file for Raphael will be downloaded. There seems to be no Granite Ridge BIOSUBU file. So does the Raphael file work with the 9600X as well, which would be actually Granite Ridge and not Raphael?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

According to this support list;

you'll need at least BIOS version 3.01 to be able to drop in the Ryzen 5 9600x onto the socket.

Flash to 3.08 for good measure, following this guide;

Thank you for your answer, but I guess the guide isn't that accurate, because my manual says I don't have to rename the BIOS file to CREATIVE.ROM, but to PSPBIOS.IMG instead. Maybe I'm wrong, and my manual seems to be outdated, but I don't think so.
