Cheapest AMD Ryzen 5 3600 board

[Ronson12]

hi

i am looking for a board(micro atx) on OCUK thats the cheapest possible and acceptable to use for a Ryzen 5 3600 and that won't require a bios update if possible.

current board is using a ryzen 3 1200

Asrock A320M AMD A320 (Socket AM4) DDR4 Micro ATX Motherboard

Not sure if this board will run the ryzen 5 without a bios update so going to donate the current board and chip to a freind.

Thanks.

The A520 will work without a bios update but you may need to update for the B450 although it would be highly unlikely but you could use the 1200 for that purpose if needed.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Asrock B450M Pro4 (Socket AM4) DDR4 MATX Motherboard= £79.99
• 1 x ASUS PRIME A520M-K (Socket AM4) DDR4 mATX Motherboard= £61.99

Total: £153.08 (includes shipping: £11.10)​
