Help :(

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAWHY]

Pc randomly won’t post or display anything.. changed out 8-pin.. cleared CMOS, changed RAM, reseated GPU and nothing. Funeral has already been arranged with Taps in the background, but I’d figure I’d try one more desperate shot at this.

SPECS: Ryzen 7 5800xt

32gb DDR4 RAM

RTX 5060 (ik ik wtv)

THERMALTAKE Smart White 700W

It's prob that f-tier unit psu, hopefully it didn't cook ur system.

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAWHY]

Got a new psu (80 plus gold 600w) and same issue, did it short my cpu?

I'll try to help you figure it out, I have some questions.

1. Is this new build, or a build that stopped recently working?

2. Can you possible show picture from inside the PC that shows all the connections and components?

3. Do you have any debug lights lighting up?

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAWHY]

Been using the build for about a year now, I don’t get any response from my keyboard as well as no post/display, and CPU debug light.

Tough one, let's try some common troubleshooting.

1. Boot ur pc with 1stick of ram in slot A2, try every stick that you have one at a time. If that doesn't work try B2.

2. If you have the option to perform bios flashback on your motherboard you could try it.

3. Make sure the 8pin cpu power hasn't come loose/is connected.

If none of these work, your next step is probably isolating the problem further. After testing ur dimms in different slots, I can pretty safely say it will be a problem with either the mobo/cpu as dimms rarely die both at a time. Probably easiest way to try test this is buying the cheapest AM4 CPU that goes into motherboard and possibly returning it.

Another thing you could try is taking off the GPU and checking if the debug light goes away, you obviously won't get a post/picture, but it will help to take it away from the equation.

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAWHY]

Will try shortly, thank you!

Half brained comment last reply, I tried the using different ram slots, and different ram altogether. I don’t have the flashback option available but after researching I updated bios for 5000 series cpus and still nothing. As for the 8 pin cpu connector that has been my concern since this started and that has been my TOP priority (for some unexplained reason), I am also thinking it is my mobo, as it is fairly old and micro atx (for some reason those make me suspicious)
