The computer's screen goes black after saving the BIOS settings.
Hi, I have a gigabyte B450M H and recently overclocked my Ryzen 3 3300G to 4ghz. After saving the BIOS, the PC Black didn't POST. I removed the CMOS battery and reset the BIOS, but the system still doesn't boot unless I change the BIOS settings. I've tried updating one setting at a time in the BIOS, but it always requires resetting it to get out. I'm not very comfortable with BIOS updates, so I'm hoping for another solution.
Bios settings must be balanced. Just bumping speeds and not the supporting voltages or amperages etc can and does create instability, and bios will revert (default is 3 attempts) back to last known 'good' settings. It's one of the hazards of OC.
I know of a 3200G, a 3400G or a 3300x, but not a 3300G. Can make a difference if it's a G and you OC the cpu side without balancing the gpu side and you are using the igpu.
I'd strongly recommend you read up a lot on OC of your cpu, and bios updates are pretty straightforward now, bios usually will do it for you pretty much. Just follow directions exactly.
Sorry, it's a 3200G running at 4ghz. The voltage box was left blank, so I'm uncertain whether the CPU is getting 0 volts or if the BIOS is handling it automatically. Could you tell me which voltage setting supports 4ghz? Also, since decimal numbers aren't allowed in the overclocking menu, the voltage must be a whole number (1, 2, or 3). Thanks for your help.
