Question Support for Ryzen 3rd gen on Gigabyte mobo

[Jason_b]

So I have just gotten the Ryzen 5 3600 CPU but I just now realized that my Mobo (GA-AB350 Gaming) isnt updated to support the CPU. I was confused on how I should update it. There are 2 things on Gigabyte's website, the chipset update and the bios update. I don't know which one I should use to update and how I should go about updating. Here are the 2 sites that I was looking at.

https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-AB350-Gaming-rev-1x/support#support-dl-bios (Bios update)
https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-AB350-Gaming-rev-1x/support#support-dl-driver-chipset (Chipset update)

You have to do the bios update. You need an older gen CPU, to update the bios with. You can consult the motherboard manual, on how that particular board requires the update to be done.
