I bought this product in October, before the Ryzen 5000 release. However, since I want to install a Ryzen 9 5900X, I wanted to ask if the bios was already Ryzen 5000 capable before the Ryzen release. Or do I have to do a bios update first?

Answer

You can or must give yourself the final answer. Check which BIOS version you have now. Either in the BIOS itself or via CPU-Z https://www.heise.de/download/product/cpu-z-19564
Then check with the manufacturer of your mainboard to see which BIOS version is necessary for the CPU you want to use. https://rog.asus.com/de/motherboards/rog-strix/rog-strix-b550-e-gaming-model/helpdesk_cpu/
