r7 3700x issues
I purchased an R7 3700X with a 2600 MHz clock speed and placed it on a system that already had a 2600 MHz chipset. It won't boot, the GPU fans aren't spinning, and the motherboard box indicates it's ready for a Ryzen 3rd gen processor. I've already gone through all the troubleshooting steps suggested before this issue. My setup includes a Gigabyte B450, gaming Wi-Fi Corsair 2x8 RAM, Corsair 600W PSU, and an MSI MECHOC OC RX5700XT.
No, I haven't updated the bios yet. The latest version is still the third generation.
I don't have a board yet trying to get my hands on a b550 but stock is hard to come by
Inquire with the computer shop or seller about updating the BIOS.
The instructions mentioned 3rd generation readiness, yet the R5 2600 was reused and the issue persisted.
