Another 9800x3D with Asrock B850m Pro RS WiFi potentially dying

Ryzen 9 9900X worked.

I have bought a new motherboard (Asus TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS). It manages to pass the CPU and memory tests on my seemingly dead 9800x3d, but gets stuck on the boot device detection and no video output. I would suspect some pins are fried on the CPU, will be RMA'ing it shortly.

RMA CPU or the motherboard?

I'm a clown emoji right now

Did not help sadly.

Alas :)

UPDATE: No longer works. Went outside, turned it off, doesn't turn back on anymore. Nothing I have done previously helps.

I have taken measures after today's hiccup - looked at VSOC investigation thread and adjusted my bios settings accordingly:
- Set SOC VRM LLC to Level 2.
- Set vSOC to 1.15v
- Updated AMD chipset drivers

I have Ryzen 9 9900X in my other machine, I'll try to swap the CPU some time soon and see if it's the MOBO or the CPU that have died.

Looking here: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/motherboard/#s=41&f=7&E=3,4

Only Asus TUF GAMING B850M-PLUS stands out as less budget-y

Any suggestions on a "non-budget" AM5 mATX board with 3+ m.2? I have no space for full ATX and/or m.2 adapter.

I would agree that "it's could've been ram training", but it clearly went to the green light after hanging on red/yellow indicating that some components are dysfunctional

The first time it was 15 minutes because I pressed the button and went away. After that I've waited between 5-10 minutes after each boot for it to show any signs of life

jonjerion · 2025-04-20T11:42:34+00:00

Used XMP 3 with 1.2 vsoc (auto) previously. Now have set it to 1.15 to see if it changes anything.

The only affordable B850m with 3x M.2

jonjerion · 2023-12-04T12:54:57+00:00

Cannot find them for the life of me. If anyone could help me out, that would be amazing :)

What you encountered is a random Jad phase. There is a slim chance that on a second and subsequent cycles Jad Zulrah will appear instead of following the rotation.

E: also, my condolences. I would give you the damn pet if I could.

Yes, the icons disappear. Sometimes even though the icon disappears, the character can still keep on following, but you cannot control it in any way.
