New PC does not boot, CPU problem ?
Hello, I finished building my first PC for gaming, but it does not boot. Here is what's happening : Regular and constant clicking sounds, every seconds approximately CPU led on mother board is fashing, No displays on the screen (completely black display, no video input) CPU fan not spinning at all The two led next to the 2x8 pin connector of my GPU are flashing too. The bootable USB key that I use has a small led on it, I plugged it on the MB, and it flashes too Here is what I have in my PC : CPU = Ryzen 5 7600, stock cooler GPU = RX 7800xt (XFX) MB = Gygabyte B650 Eagle AX SSD = NVMe Samsung 980 2TB RAM = Corsair 2*16 go cl 30 6000 mHz (it is a intel XMP although) PSU = MSI A750GF 80+ Gold full modular NZXT H5 Flow Black case What I tried to do: Unset/reset the RAM, ensured it is put on the good emplacement (but didn't try one 1 stick) Unset/reset GPU Unplug/replug CPU fan + ensured that it is plugged on the CPU_fan plug Start up the PC with the GPU plugged in the motherboard, but with the 2*8 pins connectors unplugged to see if the problem was the GPU From what I've read online, it could be a faulty CPU fan, or the CPU itself ? Regarding the 2 fans on my case, they try to start up, but immediately stop on the clicking sounds. I would appreciate any help, I am kind of panicking, wondering if I broke my CPU... I pretty sure that I inserted it correctly (with the little triangles), but when closing the lid back on with the lever, It was kind of hard, is it usual ? Furthermore, I was wondering if the bootable USB key has to be put on a specific port of the motherboard ? Thanks for your help.
