Can yes, but most likely needs a bios update might even need a bios update for the 3600.

It looks like 3600 is the only CPU that can score this MB for free?

I bought this combo when it was $100 (which is now expired) because it can support 5000 series CPUs. I'm planning to use it with the current 3600 CPU it comes with until there is a great deal on high end 5000 series CPUs in the future.

Outside of cooling, is anything I need to consider about using this lower end motherboard with a higher end CPU like the 5900x/5950x?

System will already have:
  • DDR4 16GB 3600MHz (2x8GB sticks)
  • Noctua NH-D15 CPU cooler
  • 850w PSU
  • GTX1080 (actively looking to upgrade)

I got the cheaper version of this board (no wifi) for $60 and the CPU for $80 a month or so ago... So, this is a better deal. Working just fine! I did not need a BIOS update. You would to use this board with 5-series, I think.

You should change the thread title to include which CPU is in the combo. You can edit the thread title by editing the original post.

Also there is a page specifically for the combo as opposed to adding each part separately...

Good deal, not as slick as when it was $100 but that didn't last long.

I ordered a combo on Wednesday for pickup at $100 and got it Thursday. While at MC, I decided to grab another and the price had gone up but manager blessed a second combo at the same $100 price point. New computers for the grand kids for Chrismas.

I'd imagine these are of recent enough manufacture that they'd already have the necessary bios version. 5600G support was added with bios F62 back in July of last year. 3600 support has been around since May of 2019.

A 1TB Nvme 4 SSD would be a great addition.

Whoops! I probably phrased my question wrong. I was trying to ask if there is anything I need to consider about using this lower end motherboard with a higher end CPU like the 5900x/5950x. I'll edit my original post.

Also, just want to note that this motherboard only supports up to NVMe Gen3 SSDs.

Not entirely true, it supports gen4 but is limited in speed. It is adantageous to get the latest gen drive due to design and efficiency.

I got in on one of the combo deals a month back. The 5600 (nonx, nong) with the Asus tuff b450 pro-s, turns out to be a great combo. Price was $180 and they let me stack the $25 coupon (only with managers discretion). I told the clerk that if they didn't let me use the coupon I would just wait for 7000 series. But real glad I got the combo cause those 7000 cpu/mb prices are bonkers.
