I'm curious if the A520M A Pro motherboard can actually support the AMD Ryzen 5 9600X processor. I don't have much experience with this and I'm hoping to get some clarity.

No, the A520M A Pro motherboard can't support the AMD 5 9600X. The motherboard uses an AM4 socket, while the 9600X is built for the newer AM5. If you're looking for compatibility, the A620 might work, but you may need to do a BIOS update.

SlotMachineManiac: That's good to know! So looks like I'd need to consider other motherboards if I want to upgrade to that CPU.
