Good morning on this amazing launch day of Ryzen 3000!
I am interested in purchasing a Taichi motherboard from your company, but am a bit disappointed that the 3900x is not show as a supported CPU for both your x470 & x570 motherboards - please see the links below.
My question is, will either one of these boards support the 3900x right out of the box? If not, do your boards allow bios updates without a processor (i am not upgrading, but starting with a fresh build)? If they do not allow bios updates without a processor, do you guys offer bios flashing by mailing the motherboard in?
Thanks in advance for all the information,
-Ronnie

Small chance any X470 mobo will support Zen 2 out of the box.
Depending on your location, some PC shops can do you a favor for a few bucks and flash the most recent BIOS.
Maybe ASRock USA can help with the mailing in?

Short Term Processor Loan Boot Kit
AMD will offer affected and qualified users (as described below) an AMD Athlon 200GE Processor, including thermal solution, for short-term use ("boot kit") to perform the BIOS update on their motherboard.
This short-term processor loan or boot kit is offered through AMD warranty services and is available only for qualified users that:
Have made a valid purchase of a 3rd Gen Ryzen??Desktop Processor and;
Are unable to boot that processor because the user?™s current X470/B450 BIOS must be upgraded first.
