AMD Ryzen 3000 Series Support on Existing AM4 Boards Confirmed by Asus & Asrock


So just update the BIOS, unplug the Ryzen 1000 or 2000 series CPU, plug in the Ryzen 3000 series -- and go.

I've been considering that route (just plug into my ASUS 470 motherboard). But, on my main system, I'll probably go all-in and get a new 570 motherboard for the fun of it (I doubt I'll "see" a difference). Now, I hope the CPU performance/price rumors are true. It will be a let down if the rumors have been overblown and my dreams are dashed.
