MSI (and all other brands) is going to release the latest AGESA COMBO PI V2 1.2.0.0 BIOS for AMD 500 series and 400 series motherboards, including MAX and non-MAX models.

It hasn't been that long since we reported about Agesa version 1.1.9.0, the latest bios firmware for AM4 motherboards. Although many boards do not even have this microcode, AMD has already made the newer Agesa ComboAM4v2PI 1.2.0.0 open to its partners. AMD does not have release notes on this AGESA, however, Patrick Schur claims on Twitter that it mainly concerns bug fixes and cleaning up the current code. 1USMUS, Yuri Bubliy mentions there are some exciting adjustments. System management unit (SMU) would have been upgraded. Version 56.44.00 should improve the Curve Optimizer. Optimizations have also been made in the field of power supply. In addition, the new firmware should increase the stability of the Infinity Fabric and he states that a 1900 Mhz flck clock would no longer cause WHEA errors.

MSI mentions:

Optimized and support AMD Ryzen 5000 series processors.
Optimized Resizable BAR (Re-Size BAR) function with NVidia Graphics cards.
Improved AM4 processor compatibility

Got in the latest beta bios for my Crosshair 8 Hero with Bios version 3202 beta.

Great work on AMD CPU team for bringing these updates thick and fast, now if the GPU driver team could get off their ass and fix freesync stutter that would be great
