Hello. I’m facing issues mainly with my display. It’s experiencing severe flickering and I can’t use Windows properly when launching. I played one game on my old GPU successfully, but after moving my PC and plugging in the cable again, it stopped working. I’m using a Radeon 6600 with the following specs: CPU 149000KF, MB Z790 apex encore, GPU Radeon 6600, PSU RM 1000x, RAM 2x 16GB Patriot DDR5 8200, AOI EK nucleus CR 360. I’ve tried several solutions—different RAM sticks, cables, monitors, swapping the GPU, updating BIOS, enabling XMP—but nothing seems to fix it. It might be related to how my CPU is mounted or connected. Please help, thank you!

Going black indicates there may be issues with the power supply.
Check both power sources or look for a faulty connector. Make sure all connectors are securely and fully installed.
Test alternative power outlets.
Consider using different extension cords, power strips, or surge protectors.
Can you replace the existing PSU with another known working one?
