Thanks! I just used it to build one that I want, I looked for the parts on amazon and the total was 668 USD, with this webpage is 613 USD. I just probably have to flash BIOS, but thats ok

You'll definitely need to flash the BIOS to a newer version unless the store updates it by them selves. There's a PC shop here that as soon as they get new motherboards in stock they update the BIOS to the latest version to make it a more painless experience for the consumer when he buys from them. Kudos to those guys, they'll do everything for you and free of charge.

Yeh I know most probably I will have to as its a 2nd gen ryzen. But its not that hard, just a bootable usb 

No fancy image here. Don't ask why!

one little problem tho, you will need a gen 1 ryzen cpu to flash it unless it doesn't say on your board it's ryzen 2 ready then it's ok. some motherboard manufacturers allow bios flash without cpu over USB and bios flashback button on the back IO or on the board it self but most don't have that feature (specifically AMD boards, that feature is found only on Intel ones like Z370, 170, 270 and higher end boards...). if you put your gen 2 ryzen there's a high chance the board will not recognize the cpu and the system won't post. Some manufacturers like asus started to update their boards BIOS when ryzen 2  launched so it says on the packaging it's compatible and ready with ryzen 2 chips. keep that in mind mate.

 

Because of that AMD partners will, in near future, ship boards with bios flashback feature.

:O I havent though about that! Well, I guess I can ask a friend for another AM4 processor to flash it. I have several friends who own computer shops and technical service shops
