I just was wondering why this chipset doesn't support older generation ryzen cpu's. Is there a technical reason that I don't know of. I was troubleshooting a board with a 3900x in it and I had a spare r5 1400 cpu and I was going to use it to test the board but I realized that the cpu isn't supported on b550 chipsets. I was just wondering. It seems odd to have the same socket and not be able to use older processors. Do any of you very smart people know why?
