Hello, After spending the evening trying to fix it myself, I’m reaching out for help. My setup includes an Asus ROG STRIX x570-i board, an AMD 5600X processor, an EVGA Ultra FTW 3080, and a G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series with 32GB RAM. Once everything was assembled and I tried to turn it on, the QLED screen stayed a bright yellow, suggesting a DRAM problem. I re-seated the RAM multiple times, double-checked all cables, tested each RAM stick individually in every slot, cleared the CMOS, and even tried using my existing build into the new one. Still nothing. Tomorrow I’ll swap out each component to see what works. Important points: the VRAM QLED display is functioning perfectly. I first plugged HDMI into the GPU slot, then tried the motherboard—all lights came on as expected. I also tested with and without a keyboard in the USB ports, but I couldn<|pad|> to tell if the keyboard was receiving power. Please share any alternative solutions you’ve found. Thanks, Josh

The board probably requires an updated BIOS. If the Qflash button isn't functioning, use a 3000 series device to upload the board and flash it via BIOS.

Sorry for the mix-up, I included your old motherboard instead of the new one. The new model is the Asus ROG Strix 570-i, which comes with a 5600X out of the box. I’ll still give it a shot.

Lack of QFLASH, but a nearby friend had a 3000 series. After updating drivers, I restored my CPU and it functioned properly. Appreciate the help.

Phew, nice to have someone with a CPU to share it with. He's a real performer, give him my support.
