Hi all. I have a creator trx40 motherboard and a 3990x cpu arriving in a couple of days. Ive read that the 3990 is only supported with the latest bios. Since i ordered mobo before cpu was even released, its highly possible it won't have the latest bios.

Given i am hardly likely to have another threadripper knocking around, is there a way to do a bios update if the cpu isnt supported? I know asus have this feature.. But asrock? Nothing in the manual..

Edit: found this on the asrock website, seems to be what i need, although it doesnt specify if it needs a working cpu to function:
