A:Answer "Gen 3"? Are you referring to the Ryzen 7s? Some cores such as Ryzen 7 5800X are supported from BIOS version F1 while others require BIOS version F3.
Just like the other boards built on the AMD X570 chipset, you can add support for all the way up to the Ryzen 9 series by updating the BIOS. You can do this without a second CPU if you use a formatted flash drive with files from the Gigabyte Website by first finding the device, in Motherboards > Socket AM4 > X570 > X570 Gaming X, and heading to support tab to find and download BIOS updates. After you have your flash drive prepared you can use the Q-Flash feature on the board to flash the BIOS and update it from the Flash Drive.
