Just installed a brand new PC featuring the mentioned motherboard and a Ryzen 7 5800X processor paired with an RTX 4070 graphics card. On first boot, the motherboard only powered on its back RGB light but showed no power or other signals. After inspection, someone noticed the CPU fan control chip was damaged, which seemed to be the sole issue. They wondered if it’s possible to locate and replace this specific chip, potentially saving the expensive board. Since you’re based in Brazil, finding specialized technical assistance is challenging. Would you like advice on how to proceed? You’ve already ordered another motherboard and are considering warranty options, though international purchases may complicate things.
