The motherboard needs a bios update to work with the cpu this can be done with a feature calles bios flashback which that motherboard doesnt have.

There are further options like borrowing a Cpu or requseting an update kit from amd but i would just get a motherboard with bios flashback.

Msi x570 tomahawk Wi-Fi.

+1, it’s a great board

Thank you a lot

so will it work wit 5800x straight out of box?

Nah it will likely need a BIOS update. In theory you might one get a brand new batch with the latest BIOS, but like any X570 or B550 board you will likely need a flash before you can use Zen 3.

I can say though that I’ve had no problems with the process as per mickeyflinn’s video myself. Was pretty pain free.
