Question Checking BIOS version before purchasing? B450 and Zen 2

[joe360]

I am planning on building a new system with Ryzen 7 3700X and B450 (either ASRock B450M Pro or MSI B450M Pro-M2) and I've read about the requirement to updated BIOS to support the new Zen2.

I'm not sure if this question makes sense, but is there a way to check what BIOS version I will get before purchasing? I'd like to avoid the hassle of updating the BIOS if I can.

Thanks in advance!

MSI put MAX moniker in their updated B450 and X470 lineup to inform that those boards are Ryzen 3000 ready.

They even added the MSI A320M-A PRO MAX

Oh, I just realised they overhaul the whole AMD board lineup with MAX update.

Almost.
