Hey all,
Looking for some advice, or tips on what I may have overlooked while upgrading my pc. I might be going slightly insane or maybe i just need to return some faulty things.
First the issue: no graphical output. Pc goes through boot process, and stalls at the VGA stage when it comes to the motherboard indicating lights. Then after ~20 seconds it restarts the process and again passes the CPU, DRAM stages to stall again on VGA and no output to the monitor.
Everything seems to have power, all fans on, cooler pump on, Gpu lights and fans on, all rgb lights up etc etc.
So what i've tried so far:
Removed graphics card entirely and tried the motherboard ports for display. Tried both hdmi and display port outputs on both mobo and gpu and no change. Tested the graphics card on a separate device and that works fine. Changed both cables and monitor tested on and no change in behaviour.
Some things I’d thought I’d try too on the off chance they’d work: changed all power connectors from psu (those that came with spares) unplugged all fans, cleaned and reseated cpu. All these I have then retested between each and still hangs on vga stage.
There also appears to be no damage to the CPU, nor any bent pins on the motherboard that I can see as this was my first big worry.
My suspicion is that it’s the CPU as it doesn’t pass this stage even with no GPU in the pcie slot and connected to the motherboard on either the DP or HDMI slot and my assumption is that the integrated GPU on the 7600x should atleast pass to boot and bring up the bios screen. Thoughts?
For clarity here is the specs:
Ryzen 5 7600X
ASUS ROG Strix B650-A gaming WiFi
2x16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5 RGB 5200MHz
Corsair RM1000x PSU
NZXT Kraken X73 cooler (old - but with new AM5 mounting hardware due to its otherwise incompatibility)
Palit RTX 3080 GamingPro GPU (old)
I do have access to a separate intel 8700K rig that I can use for some testing - limited to just the GPU really due to switching to both AM5 and DDR5, essentially the rig from which the GPU came from along with the cooler.
Any ideas? Or do you all think I’m looking at a CPU/Mobo return? if you need any additional info let me know!
Thanks everyone.
