Hi. I plan to upgrade my cpu from ryzen 5 5600x to ryzen 7 5800x3d. At first i asking chatgpt is my motherboard asrock B450m steel legend support 5800x3d or not. The answer really make me confused. It say related to bios. At first it said not compatible then second time asking it say compatible. Can i get everyone expert who know a lot more about pc. Is my bios ready for 5800x3d?

Check the Asrock website, don’t ask an LLM stuff like this. It doesn’t know, it just makes up answers to questions you ask. So even if it says you’re all good, you might in fact not be good at all. Learn how to get the info for yourself, so you actually know instead.
ASRock lists 5800X3D support on that board with bios version P4.30 and you’re running P10.31 which is much newer, so you should have no issue swapping over. All motherboards have a CPU compatibility page on the manufacturers site for checking this info.
Should be supported. If you’re already running a 5000 series CPU, there won’t be any issues swapping in another 5000 series.
The only time you run into issues is if you were previously running a 1000 or 2000 series CPU and need to make the jump straight to 5000 series.
I went through an upgrade from 5 2600 to 7 5700X3d, so on a b450 from MSI. My guess is that if you are already on a ryzen 5000 it should be easy. If in doubt, try to upgrade your BIOS as much as possible before swapping
