r/MSI_Gaming on Reddit: Update bios for ryzen 9 9950x3d
April 2, 2025 -
Hello,
Just ordered 'MSI MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI' and a ryzen 9 9950x3d.
The question is fairly straightforward: Are they compatible or do I need to update the bios?
If I do need to update bios, how would I go about it? Don't I need a cpu in order for it to update? Or does it work even without updating it, but just less efficient? I have never updated a bios so I have no idea what to do...
Thanks for the help

I would flash latest bios before I connect cpu or memory. Just all mobo power cables and follow the official instructions.

July 6, 2025 - Welcome to the forums, newcomer! First thing, if you haven't is update the BIOS on your motherboard. Then enable AMD's E.X.P.O in BIOS. Then you can use Ryzen Master's Curve Optimizer and undervolt the CPU.

Question - Best BIOS and Windows settings for Ryzen 9950X3D ? | Tom's Hardware Forum
August 15, 2025 - Gigabyte/Aorus implemented something similar, disabling one ccd completely and disabling smt. Some games tested by Hardware unboxed showed an improvement, others showed a regression. It could only be accessed through BIOS so changing from the “turbo” mode to normal running meant a full reboot.

Make sure you update your AM5 motherboard for the Ryzen 9 9950X3D | PCWorld
February 21, 2025 - Update your UEFI/BIOS before you upgrade, even if everything should already be compatible on paper. I’ll also point out that the Ryzen 9800X3D processor released last year has consistently been in short supply, so the upgraded 16-core and 12-core variants will probably sell out quickly, too.
