    I'd honestly keep an eye out for the 5600X. it may get discounted prior to the updated Stacked Cache Zen 3 CPUs in Q1 next year and to compete with the 12600K from INtel: It's a better gaming CPU thanks to higher Zen 3 core speeds, and pretty much matches the 3800X in all core workloads despite 'missing' 2 cores. It's the higher performance and more versatile option at

    Almost all will now ship with Ryzen 5000 compatible BIOS. There's still a slim chance that you encounter old stock that isn't updated. You can check with retailers and some offer a BIOS flash service. Alternatively, check if the board has a CPU-less flash feature (Q-flash, flashback or similar) and you can flash it yourself from USB.

    By now I'd expect all retail boards to be shipped with a compatible BIOS, yes. However it does have BIOS flashback so it's easy to flash yourself if you need to.

    I ended up getting the MSI B550 Unify. It's an excellent choice that won't break the bank. I'm running a 5950X. An X570(S) board was not necessary after all. It has 4 M.2 slots that can all support NVMe, 3 at PCIe 4.0 and one at 3.0 in CPU mode. It has enough SATA ports even with all the M.2 slots populated which does result in one SATA port being unavailable. I currently have 3 SATA ports in use. There is no RGB on the board which is just fine by me because this is an RGB-less build with no glass panels in the case. I highly recommend this board as being probably the best B550 board available. It's supposedly aimed at gamers by MSI but it's working fine as a Windows and Linux development machine for me. Better than fine actually. I'm very pleased with the decision.

    It will do fine. I'd personally like to see a bit more heatsinking on the VRMs and perhaps a more robust VRM deisgn, but it will still run to full potential. If the Aorus B550M Pro is close in price, that has better VRM configuration and a more extensive rear I/O panel.

    It doesn't matter. A single 8 Pin CPU EPS connector powers all these boards/CPUs adequately. Additional power is not required. Specs are readily available online if you want to check for some reason. It's not a relevant distinction between boards so I don't mention it.
