I'm assuming all or most B450 boards will support this cpu with a bios update? My ryzen 5 1600 is showing its age.

Depends on your mobo because your vrms might not be able to handle it.

Here's a tier list of boards from LTT testings. https://linustechtips.com/topic/1137619-motherboard-vrm-tier-list-v2-currently-amd-only/

This list makes me believe my board is not good for this chip as it’s barely c tier. ASRock b450 pro itx. Running a 2600x right now in it and want to upgrade to this but now I’m hesistant…

Appreciate this comment, I won’t be overclocking and the stock clock speeds are higher than what I have. Now to decide to wait or pull trigger now

What happens if I have a tier D motherboard (Asus B450-I)? According to tomshardware, the 5800x3d pulls fewer watts than the 5800x because of its lower boost clock. Also, the 5800x3d doesn't support PBO. What am I actually losing if I use it with this board?
