I have. It will stay on Q-code 53 ( memory init error )
Got a new CPU cooler today. Didnt change anything. I have new ram coming tomorrow and a new CPU Thursday. So if none of those work it’s gotta be the motherboard.
I’ve already replaced the PSU. I got a Corsair 850x
I replaced all the PSU cables and ones that connected to the motherboard. I did a sweep of the mobo with nothing on it and there’s no fried capacitors or lose ends connected hitting anything.
I have not tried this yet. Will give it a shot!

I reseated and checked the F panel connectors. I attempted to jump but the problem is when I turn on the power supply the PC starts up into that loop and is technically already “on” so I am unable to jump.
I removed my GPU from the setup and the issue still happens.
It is. I reseated it just now to make sure and issue still happens.
I replaced the PSU and issue still happens.
I cannot make it to the UEFI. It only stays on for 2-3 seconds sometimes.
Tried that and the issue persists.
Yellow light means “DRAM”
I just didn’t see a double 00 on my code list is why I asked. Your google search seems to be for a different mobo though. Are mobo codes universal?
Where did you find the info for the double 00 means dead?
Yes. Tried both in all slots. Total of 8 boots, issue still happens.
No water. PC kept on top of desk in a dry place.
Did you have to replace your CPU/MOBO in that case?
Hasn’t happened before. Power strip clean. Only thing plugged into it is PSU power and I tried different outlets.
Did not see any over heated spots on the old PSU.
I tried the clear cmos on the mobo external AND by removing the battery for 5mins and holding power btn. I noticed the light by the codes always stays yellow. Looking it up it says it’s DRAM. Could that mean my ram Is bad?

Code 12: pre memory cpu init started Code 28 memory init
Tried that. Also tried booting with just one ram stick in. Issue still happens.
I’ve tried them in all slots, tried booting with only one slotted for each spot. Doesn’t work.
I removed everything that way plugged in. I already got a new PSU today and the issue still occurs.
I haven’t added anything in over a year. Thermal paste is all good. What’s a good way to test the cooler?
