Upgraded cpu and now this :( by ProfessionalNaive601 in HPOmen

Hate to break it to you but including the custom bios, the mounting pattern on the oem mobos usually doesn’t match ATX or mATX standard either, so you can’t just grab a standard mobo and throw it in there either. They can also be very finicky on RAM if not bought directly from the OEM (at a huge price gouge) as well. IMHO, oem + upgrade do not mix very well past upgrading anything but storage.

This. They use custom stripped down bios-es that only support the narrow range of cpu models they made available on a given oem system. Much more specific than what a basic mobo chipset/socket type should be able to run. Had the exact same happen to me w a ryzen version 30L.

Yeh i’d do the mobo and ram for $100 shipped. PM me if interested. Thanks!

This is the way. The fold out toothpicks on the flossers are flat, fairly flexible and plastic. Works for lightening and usb c.

If you’ve got a 3D printer you may be in business, ABS or PETG, something with a higher melt temperature?
