    Will MoBo BIOS Update For CPU Needed?

    I'm planing to build a small, cheapest media PC build and I am interested in using the Gigabyte A320M-S2H Motherboard with AMD Athlon 200GE Dual Core Radeon Vega 3 AM4 CPU

    https://www.scan.co.uk/products/giga...m4-motherboard

    Reading on the Gigabyte website, this CPU is compatible with a BIOS update F23

    My question is: If I order the Mobo today, would it come with the latest BIOS update for the CPU?

    It isn't guaranteed and depends on the shipment / how long they have had the stock. Sometimes you get a sticker with the BIOS version on the box so you could ask before buying but I haven't tried this with scan. I'm sure if you asked nicely enough they would update it for you with an old processor laying around if it wasn't the case.
