I have got B450 Pro4 with Ryzen 2600, you reckon it's a good idea to jump from 4.10 to 4.80? I noticed too 4.80 has no warning for pinnacle, while 4.10 had. I have no issues with 4.10 other than that weird flashing (which is only during POST, rest is all normal): https://streamable.com/vjps8y

So you flashed 4.10 with the warning, but now you're worried about 4.80 which doesn't have it? Personally would update it.
That flashing looks weird, and also, I can see that you didn't make a EUFI windows installation, you did a legacy installation.

I'm using a Fatal1ty B450 Gaming K4.

I've updated it, and it was a good thing. I was having game crashes on default settings and XMP wouldn't boot. Everything got fixed.

There is a reason for many users to be looking to update BIOSes for AMD systems, Resizable BAR /SAM.

I keep checking every couple of days because while I can update to 3.60 for my x570 Steel Legend, I am afraid that this might make my USB things worse since it does not include the USB fix.

It's kind of jarring to have the warning pop up that says don't update if your system is behaving normal when there is also a significant feature update in the latest BIOS. At least my GPU is ready.    

ASROCK released some 1.2.0.1 Patch A updates last week so I am expecting them to roll out soon for my board.

Just an update of Bios info from my last post. Decided to try 3.90 for my Fatal1ty B450 Gaming K4 board. Still have the beef about not recommended for the Pinnacle, Raven or Summit Ridge CPU warning in the bios downloads and listing the Pinnacle 1600AF in the supported list as since bios 3.90 - It was working for me shipped with the 3.50 bios. I'm not worried about 4.10 because that's a mem and fan control update (and other posters here are reporting problems), and the 4.20 bios Agesa Combo is specifically for gen 3 ryzen. I am using b-die mem that run at 3200 like they are supposed to. With the 3.90 bios everything is working better. With 3.50 the processor didn't boost correctly - it stayed at whatever you had set as min processor speed in power management (win7x64). Now it goes to from min to 3600 with no OC parameters set.(like it's supposed to)
