gigabyte b450 boards dual bios synchronize

Anyone know how to synchronize the backup bios with the main bios? Reason I ask, many of us will be running these boards with a 3rd gen chip, and it requires bios version F40 or higher to recognize and boot these chips.

Well, if it falls to backup bios, that is F30 or older, and won't work.

I have seen reference to pressing ALT + F10 or F12 during post to enter a screen that allows synchronizing bios, but this doesn't work on my b450 Aorus Pro Wifi.

I found a workaround for this, not the best but it worked. Basically this should apply to most of the gigabyte dual bios boards that lack a physical bios switch.
Just set a overclock you know cannot be achieved, which will force the bios to flip to backup bios, then flash that bios. force overclock again and it will flip back

small update on this, with the most recent bios F50 now there is a checkbox to update backup bios when flashing a new bios file.
