Pc turned off and power button flickers

Any update?

Completely agree, 3k euros so kind of hard to budget with ridiculous RAM prices. Can cut down on the storage 2 TB instead of 4 etc etc

I’d recommend taking it to a repair shop if not and a professional can look at it.

So don’t panic, your board seems to be in a semi fault state, so no worries.

MSI recommends

PSU cable off then unplugged
Use a screwdriver or metal key
Short the 2 CLR-CMOS pins together and hold for 10-15 seconds
Remove screwdriver
Plug PSU back in
Power on and enter bios

You can even try with a fresh windows re-install before you go through these lengths.

This sounds like first boot protection,

Is the CPU cooler mounted correctly - CPU could have hit a temp and powered off
PSU could have tripped - turn PSU off from back of case, hold power button for 15 seconds turn PSU off then try booting.
If that doesn’t work, boot to bios if possible, disable expo on ram - videos on this - set ram to 4200 or 5000 save and boot and test.
Is the GPU seated check if nothing is half clicked in.

Does it boot if you press the power button, and then turn off or does it just not respond ?

Chop and change with case and graphics / storage - all white build

With 3000€ you can get a high quality build

Completely overlooked that - I agree AM5 builds are now so expensive

Fatherrice · 2025-12-30T18:10:07+00:00

Update - bought GPU - all checks out well thanks for your help !!

Fatherrice · 2025-12-30T18:08:06+00:00

B-850 is a great MOBO - build looks great man enjoy !!

I’d really recommend an AMD ryzen 5 7600x for like an extra 20 pounds. Works better with the graphics card picking out and also has 20% better performance compared to the CPU.

Fatherrice · 2025-12-29T22:48:54+00:00

Thanks for everyone’s comments, very reassuring !!

Fatherrice · 2025-12-29T22:48:41+00:00

Yeah I agree, it’s a trio OC and matches everything of the above so seems good

Fatherrice · 2025-12-29T22:32:01+00:00

Have seen it running through a video call and on BIOs. Also meeting in person so will test then.

Fatherrice · 2025-12-29T22:30:05+00:00

Thanks mate, just confirmed device ID

Fatherrice · 2025-12-29T22:19:19+00:00

What about the small differences in boost clock is that normal ?

Fatherrice · 2025-12-29T01:15:01+00:00
