Gigabyte B650 Gaming X (AX) Owners

[sx_turbo]

So tell me why Gigabyte themselves told me it's not supported? Are you saying they lied to me so I will go out and buy a new Gigabyte motherboard? Post the links here, I want to see it for myself.

They released a new bios update in October.

It's listed in the agesa notes.

Edit: it's been covered in this thread recently. There is a link to a Reddit post where people have stated they have been successful in updating the bios and installing a 9000 series CPU.

You can say the same about many other Gigabytes B650 motherboards with multiple revisions, but they all have 8000 and 9000 series listed. And explain to me why Gigabyte telling me themselves that rev 1.4 and older do not have 8000 and 9000 series support.

The other boards don't have specific pages for the different revisions, the gaming X does, that is why.

That's clearly untrue, you can open any B650 motherboard that has multiple revisions and it will have specific pages for each revision. You either haven't looked or you're purposely posting on this thread to create controversy.

I opened a random Gigabyte B650 motherboard with multiple revisions below, even the oldest discontinued revisions listed support for 8000 and 9000 series.

They released a new bios update in October.

I can always ask Gigabyte again if this has changed but according to their last response it was a hardware limitation.
