AMD offering a CPU loan for people to flash an APU Bios onto their AM4 boards

This is exemplary customer service right here. Not sure if it's available outside the USA but I would assume so.

"If you can’t use UEFI flashback to install an updated BIOS or receive no support from your motherboard manufacturer, AMD will ship you an APU guaranteed to work on all systems."

It's a Bristol ridge APU that they ship you so you don't even need a GPU. Very Nice service AMD! I'm glad I chose Ryzen and will be getting 7nm Ryzen almost certainly :)
