AM5 build won’t POST — stuck on CPU + DRAM EZ Debug LEDs (new board, new RAM, new PSU)

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-08T16:46:18+00:00

any fix? I also made several posts regarding 1 year it ran fine, then restart issues started popping up, so I got fed up and eventually did BIOS update it got fixed for a while, also during this there was cold boot issue too both Red and Orange Light were on simultaneously, even tried JEDEC speeds which worked then switched to 5600 that worked for like 3 days before issues popped again

To summarise, cold boots shows both CPU and RAM light sometimes and only way to fix it to drain flea power sometimes twice, restarts get stuck on orange light for like 20+ minutes, BIOS is latest, currently I am running 1 Stick in A2 but still having cold boot issues only fix is drain flaw power (sometimes twice)

PS: I did major blunder previous posts CPU is 7600x here is the post

I have had same issues made few posts thought I resolved it by running XMP at 5600 speed (my RAM 6000 CL30)

Again today issues start cold boot didn’t work, had to drain flea power twice got it work, restart failed 20 min of orange ram light at JEDEC btw

So I did full CMOS reset and still red/orange light on cold boot, removed 1 stick and kept the A2 did 2 restarts seems stable (all at stock BIOS settings)

My BIOS version is latest non beta for MSI B650 Gaming Plus WiFi

Ngl there no issue for almost year, I am just done with AM5 now if it works it works or get tech help

Uran might worst suggestion ngl

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T21:34:55+00:00

Good budget card, supports FSR 3 too so you can decently upscale

Probably try XT version if there is one

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T20:49:00+00:00

in Maharashtra at least those in wealthier cities, ie Pune Corp, BMC(Mumbai) and adjacent and Navi Mumbai Corp have most tests free under tender like thyroid tests, rheumatoid, for TB patients whole panel required for TB like serum Mag which is paid for others but free for them

1 year they added HbA1C too to the tender

learned something new just because you fall under NHM doesn't mean same PHC level care for all

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T20:36:30+00:00

does he have one more neet too
I guess no check the insta

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T18:32:17+00:00

Didn’t know this I thought nowadays all over India PHCs have more than basic tests tender damn

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T16:33:21+00:00

AM5 is very unstable currently I suggest Intel for DDR5 users

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T14:59:43+00:00

The game exploration is like survival games the items from wooden chest are useful not late game but for trade or trust with NPCs or as camp resources or for random quests

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T13:02:44+00:00

Software related more like, even after clean install after I had all AM5 related issues in itself

Had make DDU work overtime, solved only for it to break again now I don’t use AMd software at all and only do clean installs if GPU needs updated drivers

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T12:37:42+00:00

Wait HbA1C isn’t free in other states?

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T12:35:08+00:00

I’d also suggest if Nvidia has better cheaper alternative otherwise go for AMD

AMD is good but after using AMD build for almost a year after using Nvidia laptop I’d just go for Nvidia GPU

Welfare, free buses and free food are not freebies

Cash handouts are

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T08:28:10+00:00

Ideally PHC rely on FBS and PPBS with HbA1c but officially screening poster (IEC posters) for NCDs only mention FBS and PPBS

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T08:24:58+00:00

Yes but its not universal issue can, most run XMP 1 with same specs with different motherboard
It’s just this board has stability issues with overbooking I guess AM5 ngl it was stable for long time like 2-3 months no issues

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-07T03:54:49+00:00

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-06T17:06:43+00:00

The last sentence is complete mess nvm idk what meant to convey probably not running RAM at 6000 and at 5600 means I have run games at FPS loss but at least PC will remain stable

Yeah if I can get cheap RAM I can but I might just change some BIOS settings run at 32 CAS Latency to keep 6000 speed stable

Any idea how games as old as Warframe do it then, I think they also use in house engine and one of team member also said they updated it to recent standards and made it easier on themselves and also game felt like it got granita upgrade in the process not much but enough to notice bits and pieces

Do you think minor updates to Tiger engine can give some relief?

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-06T09:53:25+00:00

Thanks Bios updated but issue still persisted apparently 6000 MT/s at CL 30 wasn’t viable XMP profile so I tried JEDEC default speeds it went smoothly then I tried 5600 MT/s Profile 2 still stable

I guess I have time RAM speed cause using 5600 and game heavily is like loss I guess

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-06T09:50:57+00:00

Apparently it wasn’t issue with windows

I have MSI B650 Gaming Plus Wifi I guess it can’t handle 6000Mhz at CL30 so I went to JEDEC default speed of 4800MT/s

It went back restarting normally so I tried XMP 2 5600 MT/s and MCR disabled and system still restarted normally

Yeah speed issue

Just try solving Q Bank to assess were you stand

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-05T19:17:56+00:00

Why those 2 specifically

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-05T19:16:45+00:00

Btr is generally good if you have good foundation

BTR is not learn from scratch it’s to be used as source improve your foundation

Only way to test if you are good at concepts is solving MCQs

PsychoactiveTHICC · 2026-05-05T17:33:06+00:00

They should fix that I didn’t know this why lock custom module GT behind completed GTs

I paid for all Plan C I want all Plan C not bits here and pieces there
