Hi, I just bought a 3900x to use with my GA-AX370-Gaming-K7 board. Hoping someone here has done this already. Before I continue, I want to be 100% certain I understand the procedure.
Currently, I am on BIOS version F10 with a 1600x and (4) 16GB DIMMS.
Did I miss anything? Also, the Windows executables are for flashing the board's firmware directly, right? I'll be doing these steps from a spare Windows drive, but I will be running Linux (UnRaid) after that.

- From Windows, update AMD Chipset Driver to 18.50.16.01 or later version.
- From Q-Flash, flash BIOS version F31 (in order to get the newest version of Q-Flash).
- From Windows, install EC FW Update Tool (B19.0517.1 or later version) to ensure 4-DIMM compatibility.
- From Q-Flash, flash BIOS version F50d.
- Replace 1600x with 3900x, all should work correctly.
