See if any of your local PC shops will drop in a supported CPU to flash the BIOS for you. Order the BIOS Flashing Kit from AMD, where they send you an older CPU to flash your BIOS with. Buy a cheap CPU to update the BIOS. Send the board back and purchase a board that has the BIOS flashback feature (like I bought) and profit. Those are your only options.

r/Amd on Reddit: How to upgrade the BIOS of the TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) without BIOS Flashback and CPU?
December 30, 2020 -
  • Note: The PC hat not been build yet!

  • Computer Type: Desktop

  • CPU: RYZEN 5 5600X

  • Motherboard: TUF Gaming X570-PLUS (WI-FI)

  • Description of Original Problem: I got the Ryzen 5 5600X which is not compatible out of the box with the X570.I don´t have a Zen3 or Zen2 processor to upgrade the BIOS, neither does the motherboard have a BIOS Flashback button to upgrade with the help of a USB.

  • Troubleshooting: The local IT shops were not able to help me and I think AMD does not send loan boot kits in my country (Germany).

  • Can someone orientate me? I don´t want to send back the motherboard as it is a gift. I have the feeling that I have no options.

Question about asus x570 tuf gaming plus - Republic of Gamers Forum - 903473
March 7, 2024 - Well that is the thing, newer date manufactured boards have print on the box saying 5000 series ready but stores in which board is available says that they do not have the newer models only old ones with old bios version, that is why I asked if it is any way possible to update bios without using my 5000 series cpu. ... I'm not sure which stores are local to you, but if they confirmed to you that their stock is old then I can't really argue. Major retailers like Amazon cycle through stock quickly so they will usually have recently manufactured boards. I think in this case I would lean towards the TUF gaming Pro which has flashback.

Answer (1 of 2): The Asus TUF X570-Pro have that feature, called BIOS Flash back. Which is $20 more expensive. The Asus TUF X570-Plus does not have it.

r/buildapc on Reddit: Flashing Asus Tuf Gaming X570-Plus without CPU
December 12, 2020 -

So I keep reading mixed things about being able to flash the Asus Tuf Gaming X570-Plus without an older Ryzen CPU, I only have a 5800X. So has anyone been able to do it and if so how? I know the board has no bios flashback port but it does have st called EZ Flash 3 Utility which seems to be able to upgrade to the new bios. Right now I can't even get the board to boot at all and nothing shows up on the monitor. Although I also have no case and I've been trying to short pwr_sw to turn the mobo on so maybe I've just been doing that wrong or the board just can't boot without a cpu. 1st time building a computer and would love any help. Thanks!

Question - Do I need to update the latest bios for ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Wi-Fi)? | Tom's Hardware Forum
March 18, 2022 - Depends on how old of stock that board is. I would recommend a different board, that has a bios flashback feature, so the bios won't be an issue. B550 is sufficient, and often has better I/O as well. Unless you really feel you need to have more Gen 4 storage, x570 is not really necessary.

December 27, 2022 - Just do it as you would do a new Bios. What I would recommend you to do - clear CMOS, reflash the same new BIOS, reseat all memory modules, retry XMP. If 3600 doesn't work, use profile2 to get 3200 Almost no performance loss there.

So, I have my pcpartpicker list open and for my motherboard, I have added the Asus TUF Gaming X570-Plus (Non-WiFi) and it has gotten a lot of good reviews and it's only $164! So, I am thinking of adding a Ryzen 5000 CPU to the list. (Either the Ryzen 5 5600x or the Ryzen 7 5800x.) Yes, I know the value isn't great. But anyway, I heard that you will need a BIOS update to use Ryzen 5000 CPUs for older 500 series motherboards.

Answer (1 of 3): As is, you don’t “need” any BIOS updates. All X570 boards come with all the pre-requisites for all the 3000 series Ryzens. If you do later choose to upgrade to a 4000 series Ryzen when those become available, you would likely need to perform an upgrade.

r/buildapc on Reddit: How do I update my BIOs for my Asus Tuf Gaming X-570 Plus (Wifi) Motherboard?
March 12, 2021 -

I’ve looked up videos but none seem to help me out. When i download the file off the Asus support page for the motherboard there is a file called “BIOs Renamer” or something like that. No video seems to tell me what to do with it, maybe I’m just looking in the wrong place. Someone please help.

Also I’m updating my BIOs because I cant play games that use Easy Anti-Cheat, because they crash my PC. I was told it was due to and outdated BIOs but if someone has a different fix please tell me. Thank you in advance :)

Edit: I’ve updated my BIOs and I can now run games that use Easy Anti-Cheat!
