It’s not guaranteed that you won’t be able to yet just wait to see what happens. They also never guaranteed that you would be able to upgrade either did they? I’ll expand on the above post. Msi have but perhaps not Amd. Take it up with Msi.
I get it some people will feel they’ve missed out but like I said they’ve given more than intel ever has. Just wait to see what happens if you feel they’ve let you down then go somewhere else. Or sell your board and get an X570 or newer. Up to you really.
It's not fare to blame MSI - AMD for 12 months forced OEMs to sell B450 as the mainstream B450 chipset. They didn't release B550 and that is their fault. If there was a B550 released last year this wouldn't be happening now.
Most systems with Zen2 are B450,with a new motherboard bought in the las 12 months. Forum enthusiasts don't understand this. People are acting like everyone who bought Zen bought it in 2017 with a b350 and are using the same motherboard. Nobody will deny those users did well,but its the recent users which are the problem here.
They told HUB that they won't release microcode for them - Humbug linked to the video. This is like Intel does.
They told a system integrator that their B450 systems would work even in April.They then proceeded to find out this week from media reports,and they are perplexed. How can they not even communicate properly with system integrators? MSI maybe was told the same by AMD.
They told another channel it will work but gave reasons for not releasing it.
