Will this mobo cpu combination work?

PerryMcG · Sep 6, 2017

Hi I just wanted to know if anyone can verify these two work with each other?

AMD Ryzen 5 1600 https://www.amazon.co.uk/AMD-Ryzen-1600-Desktop-CPU/dp/B06XNRQHG4
MSI B350 TOMAHAWK https://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-B350-TOMAHAWK-Socket-Motherboard/dp/B06WWPDJ95

I know they have the same socket but I read another toms hardware forum post saying something about the BIOS needing to be v1.3 or something and I'm not sure where to find if this mobo has this version.

It should work fine. Once you have set up the pc, update the BIOS from here... https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B350-TOMAHAWK
Everything is explained on that page, including how to update BIOS.

Be aware that all MoBos and chipsets are not created equal, in this price you may find some of the features and on-board components may be less than you had assumed. We usually recommend the items in parenthesis as the basis for gaming builds. Of course, will only be worth investing in these if your network / sound system is able to take advantage.

For example:

Audio Chipset = Realtek ALC892 (Realtek ALC1220)
LAN Chipset = Realtek 8111H (Intel I219-V / Intel GbE LAN chip)
