I have a MSI B450m Gaming Plus Motherboard with a Ryzen 5 2600. I just bought a Ryzen 7 5800x, but I need to know if I need to update my BIOS first. I know you can fry your motherboard if you do not actually need a BIOS update, so I want to make sure. HELP PLEASE

I originally thought I had to download a new bios and install it after I installed my new cpu, but of course I was wrong because you're supposed to update your bios before putting in the new cpu. When I had the new cpu in, my screen was black so I tried to do a bios flashback which ended up doing nothing. I then tired to put my old cpu back in which led to the screen being black once again. I'm lost and frustrated and would appreciate any solutions anyone has! Thank you! (I have a MSI B450M Gaming Plus)
