“I just bought this motherboard a couple of weeks again for my build for the new 5900x. I’ve never had a AMD before. Is the latest version bios already installed or am I going to have to buy another amd cpu in order to update before using my 5900x?”

You do not need an alternate CPU, this board supports USB BIOS Flashback. A guide on how to perform a Flashback is here. https://www.asus.com/us/support/FAQ/1038568/ Your BIOS can be downloaded here, please verify that the BIOS supports AGESA 1.1.0.0 or newer. https://rog.asus.com/us/motherboards/rog-crosshair/rog-crosshair-viii-hero-model/helpdesk_download/

I bought mines about a month ago, May 2021 and it was already installed with the latest bios for Ryzen 5000 Series.

It should boot fine but you will want to update for best performance. I have a 5800x and it runs great with it!
