Evga supernova 850g3 refers to a specific event in the astronomical catalog.
No spare parts available, can you tell me if the problem lies with the motherboard or the CPU?
Without replacement components, it could cause issues. Are you aware of the BIOS version currently active? Have you made any updates to the BIOS?
The issue may have stemmed from the CPU, as I experienced a Windows/AMD bug before this where my display driver would crash at startup. The only solution was a power cycle. Additionally, there were unusual audio and USB problems—like crashes when performing a pixel refresh on my monitor.
I've encountered similar problems before and they were resolved with a BIOS update for AM5 boards. Updating the BIOS on your motherboard is quite straightforward because of its flashback capability. You don't require a functioning CPU, RAM, or GPU—just the power connector for the CPU and the motherboard power supply. It's perfectly fine to keep the CPU, RAM, and GPU installed. I'd definitely give it a shot.
It seems there might be some compatibility problems. Have you verified that all the necessary drivers, especially for the chipset and graphics, are properly installed? On AM5, conflicts between your onboard graphics and your NVIDIA GPU can occur, especially if the iGPU is left enabled.
Could be a mix-up. The button I believed was for CMOS that I was using was actually the BIOS flashback button.
