MSI B450/B550 motherboards began to push the new BIOS version

MSI announced that it has begun to push the AMD AGESA 1.2.0.4 BIOS firmware update for its B450/B550 series motherboards. This is the first motherboard manufacturer to provide this firmware version. According to Wccftech reports, this update includes:

1. Update to COMBOAM4v2PI 1.2.0.4
2. SMU firmware updated for Vermeer, Cezanne and Picasso
3. TPM enabled by default

According to MSI, AMD AGESA 1.2.0.4 BIOS has also updated the SMU firmware of AMD Ryzen series processors, including Vermeer (Ryzen 5000 series), Cezanne (Ryzen 5000G series), and Picasso (Ryzen 3000G series). In addition, after the update, TPM will be enabled on the motherboard by default, which means that users can install and run the Windows 11 operating system on this series of B450/B550 motherboards.

There are seven B450/B550 series motherboards in the first batch, including two B450 motherboards and five B550 motherboards, including:

MSI said that motherboards including the X470/X570 series will receive AMD AGESA 1.2.0.4 BIOS firmware updates in the next few weeks to prepare users for upgrading to the Windows 11 operating system.
MSI has previously stated that motherboards supporting TPM 2.0 do not require additional TPM modules, but users need to enable the “Security Device Support” option in the BIOS to enable TPM 2.0, emphasizing that only the motherboard BIOS supports TPM 2.0, and the supported motherboards include Intel Z590/B560/H510 series, Z490/B460/H410 series, Z390/Z370/B365/B360/H370/H310 series, Z270/B250/H270 series, Z170/B150/H170/H110 series, AMD X570/B550/A520 series, X470/B450 series, X370/B350/A320 series, TRX40/X399 series.
