Are there a lot of people wanting to plug Zen 1 chips into B550 motherboards? Usually it's the other way around, upgrading chip in an old motherboard.

    It can happen if the old motherboard failed, which was more likely than the CPU failing.

    There was talk of not providing firmware update for old chipsets to support new gen CPU as well, which is relevant to the cases you mentioned.
