Hello everyone, spent most of my day working on this project. I’m facing a few problems with the build I just finished. Details: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WwtVW4. Every time I try to power on, the system starts up and goes straight to the pre-bios screen (pressing F2 to open BIOS, etc.). It freezes right after that, sometimes even at the pre-bios stage. If I insert the Windows installation media, it boots normally to USB but then jumps into a BOSD. I’m really confused and feeling frustrated. Any advice or second opinions would be appreciated. What I’ve already done: reinserted the drive, checked RAM slots, reseated NVMe SSD, GPU, all power connections. Thanks.

Have you updated the BIOS? Unfortunately, that's an x570 board that for some reason doesn't come with any sort of flashback utility. If you can get into BIOS, you should be able to see your BIOS version number right on the main page.
