Hi all,

Just got my new AMD 5600X and ROG Strix X570-i MOBO upgrade. After putting all together, nightmare, it doesn't display the BIOS. The only indication of the issue I can find is the Yellow DRAM LED which is permantly on. But the MOBO is definitely powered, the fans come on and stay on, RGB on the board is on. Everything looks good except no display and RAM LED.

Looking for ideas before I RMA. He's what I've tried so far:

1. Re-seating and cleaning RAM.
2. Different RAM (tried Corsair Vengence 4000MHz and Patriot Viper Steel 4400MHz), both RAMs worked on previous system.
3. Tried only putting 1 stick of RAM in and tried in both slots.
4. Re-seated CPU (twice)
5. Disconnected GPU, M.2s, everything not required for BIOS.
6. Reset CMOS using pins.
7. Disconnect CMOS battery for 10 mins.

No change at all following any of my actions.

Any other ideas?

Am I right in thinking this could be the MOBO or CPU (as the memory controller is in there)?
 
At the risk of sounding like an idiot, how do I do that? I though you could only do anything with XMP when in the BIOS which I can't get into?

Cheers
 
Hmmm, looks like the 5600X was not supported until BIOS 2606 released August this year. How would I go about checking what BIOS is on the board now as I can get into it?

Also, is there any way of updating the bios from my current situation (not being able to boot at all)?

Cheers
