I was gonna update my motherboard's bios so I can use a new processor in it but I'm a little confused on what exactly it is I need to download
MSI's website seems to have two different downloads:
They have the bios update page:
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B350M-PRO-VDH
But their CPU compatibility page also seems to offer a second, presumably different download:
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B350M-PRO-VDH#support-cpu
The CPU I was looking to install is a ryzen 9 3900x and it has a respective download on the compatibility page for that processor
What confuses me is do I need both of those downloads or just the first one?
I was gonna just try the first one and see how things go but I heard some scary things about bios updates so I wanted to make sure I'm doing things right
