Today I get brand new A320M-DGS board.
And I will combine with Ryzen 5 2600x and RX 580.
So, will I need to Update BIOS before using this board?

Dear Koikun,

Greetings, this is ASRock TSD.

To get Pinnacle CPU support on A320M-DGS, the BIOS must be updated to P4.70 at least, otherwise, the MB will not post.

If your system BIOS is older than P4.70, please adopt a Summit or Bristol CPU to power on the system and perform BIOS update by Instant Flash.

Besides, due to the power phase design of A320M-DGS, it supports up to 65W CPU, we will not suggest installing 95W 2600X CPU on this board.

Thanks!
