Hello everyone, I'm building a PC for my friend, however I'm having difficulty in getting the system to POST and show something on the display . Relevant hardware specifications: - CPU: Ryzen 5 7600x - Mobo: Gigabyte B650M D3HP AX - RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR5 (2x16GB) - GPU: Gigabyte RTX 4070 Ti GAMING OC V2 12G - PSU: Corsair RM850e I tested the system at its bare before putting it in the case, just in case something like this ended up happening. I only had the CPU, GPU, RAM, and PSU connected to the motherboard, using a screwdriver to short the power button pins to turn it on. I also had a fan connected to the CPU fan header. I later tried without the GPU and with the display connected directly to the motherboard, but that did not yield any successful results either. Since I didn't actually have a cooler attached on the CPU yet (as I didn't want to unless I knew the system worked), I only had the system on for about 15 seconds maximum with each attempt. My motherboard does not have any POST diagnostics, no built-in speaker, no LEDs (at least I'm pretty sure it doesn't as I dont see anything light up), and I currently don't have a PC speaker on me to connect to the headers. The system does receive power - PSU/GPU/CPU fans spin, and RGB lights up on the RAM and the GPU, so it can't be an issue with the PSU. I connected to the display using both HDMI and DisplayPort connections, just in case one of the ports happened to not be working for some reason too, that didn't help I have read the pinned post on POSTing issues already and can confirm that I have already tried all the suggestions given, but I'll just better clarify what troubleshooting steps I took: - Reseated all power connections several times (on the motherboard/GPU and on the PSU as it's modular) - Reseated the CPU several times - Reseated the GPU several times - Reseated both RAM sticks several times - Tried using both RAM slot pairings (1 & 3 and 2 & 4) - Tried just using one RAM stick - Connected display to GPU with it present, and to the motherboard without the GPU present - Inspected the CPU socket several times, all the pins look to be in pristine condition I know I don't need a BIOS update either, as the motherboard support page says it's supported my CPU since the first firmware version. I'm a little baffled as what to do next here, and at this point my only conclusion is that the motherboard must be defective in some way. Before I go and reach out to the motheboard vendor for support and a potential RMA (which is the last thing I'd want to do), I'd like to shoot my shot here to see if anyone here has any suggestions as to what to do. Thank you!
