Cool, but are they at all safe? The number of brick anecdotes is pretty disturbing

Brick anecdotes abound concerning flashing, period. Add you can believe only a small portion of what get's posted to the 'net. ie: Is it as they posted, or is it more User Error If your system is running fine atm, there is no need to flash. BIOSes, fickle things they are, and flashing present a danger to even seasoned veterans. Me doing it here is to be able to provide forum support. My doing so here is commonplace and I accept the risk. It's just something I must do. Yet if a system is running fine, I always preach to leave well enough alone. It's not like you'll/they'll up some synthetic score by leaps and bounds in doing so.

I appreciate that, but I do find it rather disturbing how (in my case) 4.20 was released only to be retracted, and that the ab350m already got a new bios *again* after 4.30 was released for it last week, with no indication as to why and what was changed/fixed.

Is there an ETA? Or are they being released as they get done? I havn't seen an update since September. Beginning to wonder if support was dropped for my board TBH.

I have an AB350 ITX-ac running an R3 1200, DDR 4 is 2400 and nothing is overclocked.
The BIOS is 3.10 and it runs flawlessly. So no desire to upgrade the BIOS.
I also have an X370 ITX-ac and have been saving this waiting for Ravenridge to install on it. This is on BIOS 3.00.
I thought I would swap the 1200 etc from the AB350 and onto the X370, see it all runs ok and then when the Ravenridge is available just do a CPU-APU swap.
But now this bridge BIOS and 4.4 APU BIOS make me think the Raven ridge will not run unless I install the latest BIOS..
I find BIOS upgrades nerveracking, even though the 6 or so I have done over 15 years have all gone well, so what are the chances I can just run Raven ridge on the 3.10 and 3.00 BIOSs I have without updating to the latest, which do seem flakey.

After updating my BIOS to 4.40, DRAM voltage keeps changing back to 1.35V.
I was able to get stable OC on my RAM on BIOS 3.40 at 3466MHz 1.45V, but now with the new BIOS I can't, even with the exact timings which are all set manually.

There will be more posted on this at a later date. I wouldn't concern myself worrying at this stage. There will be support. That is the entire reasoning behind AM4. .

Na. There's support. The release of TR4 so soon after AM4 interrupted/slowed down everything.
