February 12, two AMD Rui Long APU officially listed, including Ryzen 5 2400G priced at 1299 yuan, Ryzen 3 2200G priced at 779 yuan.
This generation of APU products continues the AM4 interface and can be used on existing 300 Series motherboards, however, one premise is the need to add microcode to update the BIOS to recognize it.
However, the more embarrassing issue came, If your motherboard is the old BIOS, but only a new Ryzen 2000G processor, it simply can not be lit. The crux of the matter is that, in order to successfully update the BIOS, you must first have a system into the old CPU Caixing.
Although some mid-to-high-end motherboards are free of CPU updates for BIOS, this does not cover all available products in the market.
In this regard, AMD is very kind, Decided to provide this part of the user 'Boot kit (Starter Kit)', in fact, is a dual-core Bristol Ridge APU.
Hansmuffin from arstechnica broke the news that he received an A6-9500, dual-core clock speed 3.5GHz, overseas retail price of 72 US dollars.
AMD confirmed the above remediation operation to the media and arranged a dedicated support page on the official website to allow relevant users to submit requests.
Of course, although this CPU is served free, but AMD still hope that users can consciously return the CPU once resolved, but the radiator can be retained.
