Hardware fails to start following CPU upgrade to 5700x3D with VGA white LED issues
Hi there. Your current setup looks like this: Mobo model Asus Rog Strix B350f, CPU Ryzen 5 1500x, RAM Adata xpg spectrix d40 16gb @3000mhz, GPU GTX 1050ti, PSU Circle Raw 500W AIO, cooler Master Liquid 120L. You recently upgraded step by step—starting with the CPU and moving to BIOS version 6232 to match your new chip. After replacing the CPU, you encountered issues during boot: the motherboard POST stalled, showing a bright white LED instead of a proper startup. You removed and reinserted the GPU, reset the CMOS, confirmed the CPU orientation matched, but nothing worked. The power supply seems adequate (339W estimate), yet the system won’t boot. I’m not sure what’s causing it—please let me know if I missed anything. Thanks! P.S. This is my first post, so any small errors are okay.
