" rel="nofollow - Hello,
Why AM4 boards haven't a full "crashless bios" any more?

On my previous Asrock board with Intel chipset there was this(reading from the manual):
"ASRock Crashless BIOS allows users to update their BIOS without fear of failing. If
power loss occurs during the BIOS updating process, ASRock Crashless BIOS will
automatically finish the BIOS update procedure after regaining power. Please note
that BIOS files need to be placed in the root directory of your USB disk. Only USB 2.0
ports support this feature.
"
It was a great feature in my opinion (similar to Asus CrashFree), that makes the BIOS update procedure  less "scary".

It would be nice if it would return in the future (maybe with the upcoming B450 boards).

or 

2. standard feature it doesn't gets mentioned

some premum boards have this premium feature (for ex: x370/x470 taichi)
btw u will still need usb 2.0 stick with bios files inside for it to work (automatic ma a** xD)
