**AMD 5700 X3D Owners CLub**

Just old boards get a beta bios with now supporting 5800X3D (mainly 300 series). Would never put a 5800x3d in but possibly a 5700x3d if next gen GPUs are not bad priced.

Does it need to state in bios 5700x3d support. If it supports 5800x3d all be ok?

Yes UEFI version used needs to support 5700X3D. Motherboard support page will have information from which UEFI version the 5700X3D is supported.

Can you just work out from the AGESA version or not that simple?

AGESA is one piece of the jigsaw. The UEFI can contain various other updates which maybe needed. Sometimes the UEFI contains "Auto rule" changes, which might apply to the new HW, which is from the motherboard makers side not AMD AGESA. You've got AMD firmware and motherboard manufacturer firmware rolled into one package.
 
Thank you gupsterg! Although just checked the amazingly released a new bios in august for the board. Amazed they bothered for an X370

Hello again,
Just one more little question since never actually done AMD before.

If Im dropping in new CPU, and I have never updated previous CPU/bios.

Do I update old CPU/bios first , then drop in new CPU then update to latest bios ?

Update the bios first with the old CPU still in.

Then after that you can put the new CPU in and it should work.

No problem :) . Yeah some manufacturers slower than others, but all seem to be updating as and when needed.

Enjoy your new HW :) .

You can do as xiphrex states, but the Crosshair VII Hero also supports flashback.

You don't even need any HW on motherboard other than power supply and can flash latest BIOS.

Personally I'd prep USB with latest UEFI, turn system off, swap CPU, press clear CMOS button on rear IO, flash UEFI using flashback.

The AGESA for 5700X3D is newerer than the 5800X3D, I have MSI and it was quite clear which BIOS they patched it in - which was a while back AFAIK. I just stuck the latest non Beta on.
