I'm of the mindset that if it ain't broke , don't TRY to fix it ,. my understanding when buying this board that it was 5000 series compliant out of the box, original bios , IS THIS TRUE! that I can slot in a 5900x without a bios update , or it this recommended??!
P.S. Board was bought July 2022,..X570 wifi , not the dark!
Yeah it should totally work. Only the
5800X3D had to be added by a newer BIOS update. However it would make sense to update BIOS anyway as the one that shipped with your board is 1.01 or 1.02 iirc and it's really really outdated at this point. We are at
1.09 which have better compatibility and improvements that can make the same hardware run better. Especially when you have multi-bios, you are safe! (lastly there is now neat built-in fan control for
ELEET X1 which makes it easier since you don't have to control from BIOS if you don't want to. This is only possible starting from the latest BIOS)
