Is this motherboard good for overclocking Ryzen 9 3900x?

You can use the Ryzen master software it works very well but I recommend better cooler then the stock one

Does this work with a 3700x out the box?

Yes, that's what I used. No issues whatsoever.

Is it 5000 series ready out of the box?

This motherboard doesn't support it out of the box ,in order to support it download in a USB the latest bios flashback and then grab the motherboard and connect the power supply cable to it and the cpu cable put USB on the spot that say bios on the motherboard turn on the power supply switch to turn on then press the bios bottom that is right next to the bios USB port for a few seconds and release your finger once motherboard is flashing leve it till the motherboard is not flashing anymore then take out the USB drive and is done proced with the pc build you done
