Folks, I really hope this ends up not being true... as of the date of publication, there are no BIOS updates that I can find for Zen 2 for any 300 series motherboard from MSI, ASRock, or Gigabyte.

HOWEVER: All is not lost! We're still 6 weeks from the expected launch in June of Ryzen 3rd Gen (Zen 2) and this should be enough time for these companies to issue BIOS updates, if they wish to.

When Zen 2 launches, be assured I will cover this again and report on who issued BIOS updates and who did not. Credit to ASUS for having the updates out already, I hope to be able to report all 4 companies have them out on launch day.
