I built a Fatal1ty B450 Gaming-ITX/ac with a Ryzen 2400G internal graphics several years ago. I recently flashed to P1.70 bios. It has two DDR4-3200 8Gb sticks. I used Rufus to install Win11 on unsupported CPU. I don't game and wanted to find out the best value CPU to fit the AM4 slot. Would a 5600G or a 5700G work with my DDR4-3200 ram? If I do upgrade to a new CPU, will my SSD boot drive that has Win11 installed boot? I think I will need to download a new Bios that will allow the mobo to recognize the new CPU. ..Thanks
