Recently, the Ryzen 5000G arrived in the place, moreover, we could test the Ryzen 7 5700G. Still, with each new batch of processors, you have to update your motherboard so that the newcomers are supported. This is what Gigabyte is doing by launching a whole new series of bios!
Ryzen 5000G: a whole new batch of bios for Gigabyte!
For the time being, the Ryzen 5000 G-Series, represent the new generation of AMD APU. On the program, we find the Ryzen 5 5600G and Ryzen 7 5700G for the public sector. Otherwise, we have the Ryzen 7 PRO 5750G, Ryzen 7 PRO 5750GE, Ryzen 5 PRO 5650G and Ryzen PRO 5650GE for the pros. These new CPUs take advantage of the Zen3 architecture and a Vega graphics part.
Well, releasing new processors is cool, but the motherboard has to support them. That’s why Gigabyte (and others) is launching a whole series of compatible bios. These are actually intended for the X570, B550, A520, X470 and B450 boards of the brand. For each chipset, we have a minimum revision of the bios allowing support for these APUs:
- X570: F30 and newer
- B550 : F10 and newer
- A520 : F10 and newer
- X470 : F60 and newer
- B450 : F60 and newer
Updating the motherboard is not a complicated operation in itself, let’s just say that it’s best to avoid launching it in stormy weather 😉. Joking aside, to do this, just go to the brand’s website, download the bios corresponding to your motherboard and go through the Q-Flash utility from your bios. And in case of doubt, a tutorial is available on Vonguru.com.
Here are the motherboards concerned!
