Bios Update
I bought an x570 Mobo in preparation (that doesn't have a bios flash button) for the upcoming Zen 3 CPUs. Just as x470 Mobos needed a bios update for Zen 2 I assume x570 will need one for Zen 3. Does/can the Microcenter bios flash service offer bios updates without a cpu from the customer?

I bought a older B-450 MoBo and was wondering if I had to flash my own BIOS so I can use a 5600g or do all motherboards bought come pre-flashed?
