Thanks Datonyb

I didn't buy the chip from them which probably explains why they didn't offer the flash FOC. That said, thanks for the heads up on the boards now shipping with an updated BIOS. I did actually call them before I ordered it (you can't order a flash online anyway) to ask this exact question - the Q&A question was posted nine months ago so I was asking if it was still relevant - and they confirmed that yes, they'll still need to flash it, so it'll be interesting to see if the packaging bears that out when I get it. Is there any way to check the flash date in the BIOS anywhere? Would be interesting to see what that is when I fire it up, eh? :)

Cheers and all the best

i dont think its displaying anywhere the date of flash

allthough some smart ass can probably tell with an eprom reader

the likes of you and me probably cant

what you can do though is check the box for the ryzen 3000 print or sticker

AND
on the motherboard it should have the bios version on a sticker right on the actual bios chip

version 3.4 or higher is the ryzen 3000 on your board

in other words if sticker onboard is 3,4 or higher it didnt need flashing to 'boot' ryzen 3000 , whether 3.4 is anygood i dont know but if the board hasnt got version 3.9 in actual bios display then i would suggest they havnt flashed it 'for you' as this is the most recent as of the 4th feb

i know i sound a bit finicky but lets face it
youpay 300 quid for aboard the least they could do is flash the bloody bios for free ..............
