Just because the latest available BIOS might have fixed a problem does  
not mean the physical mobo you bought actually has the latest BIOS  
installed.  Have you checked, just to be compulsively certain?

I say that because not too many years ago, I bought an MSI mobo and  
Ryzen CPU (from the same vendor) and I ended up having to buy (eBay) an  
older CPU just to boot the machine so I could update the BIOS to one  
which could handle the new CPU, because the installed BIOS was too old.
