I currently have an HP 8643 Erica motherboard using an AMD Ryzen 5 3500 CPU. I need to update the motherboard's BIOS in order to upgrade the CPU to an AMD Ryzen 5600x. Where can I go to install the proper update (if there's even one available)?

The motherboard does not support any Ryzen 5xxx series processors, and a BIOS update will not change that.

 

You can only install one of the processors listed for the Erica motherboard specs:

 

HP Desktop PCs - motherboard specifications, Erica | HP® Support

 

In order to provide you with the most recent BIOS update, I will need to know the full model number or product number of your PC.
