I attempted to assemble my initial PC yet it fails to boot. System Specs: Desktop GPU RTX 4060Ti (12GB)/Radeon 780m CPU RYZEN 7 8700G 8 cores/16 threads Mainboard AsRock A620m Pro BIOS Version unknown/3.08 Flash'd RAM 32GB (2x16) CORSAIR VENGEANCE PSU Case N.A Operating System & Version GPU Drivers Chipset Drivers Background Apps Description of Issue Everything appears fresh. Power button pressed, fan spins but CPU and DRAM indicators flash. No screen output. Remained several minutes. Updated BIOS via flash tool without issues. Mainboard compatibility confirmed at 8000. Now I’m stuck. Someone might have missed something helpful. That would be helpful. PC power cable and 20-pin mainboard connector used (not the 6+2 type). CPU with 4+4 8-pin connector installed, no bent pins. Correct orientation. Cooler 1x 16GB DIMM in B2 slot (both tested, others checked). Mainboard shows no visible scratches.
Check if the cable is linked to the 4060 Ti or the mainboard. Determine whether it uses HDMI or DP.
A brand new device needs time for RAM training, which can take a while. Be patient and keep waiting until the BIOS window appears. A blank drive has no drivers installed, making it harder to reach the BIOS screen quickly. The exact moment it shows up isn’t predictable.
You're wondering about the expected wait time for your issue. It could take anywhere from about 10 minutes to an hour, depending on the situation. Since you've tried waiting a short period without success, it's worth considering whether the problem might be with the motherboard or CPU components like the memory controller.
Thanks for the suggestion. Indeed, the 4060 wasn't set up initially. The DP was checked too, but it didn't work. To be clear, when the CPU and DRAM are active, I don't think the video port will have any impact.
Sure, take your time with the AM5 setup—it's a bit slow, but that's normal. It's strange to think a consumer product could be released so poorly. AMD hasn't received enough criticism for their RAM training issues, and since the Intel LGA 1700 platform isn't as problematic, it points to an AMD-specific problem rather than just a DDR5 flaw. I imagine motherboard makers, afterbuilders, and others would be upset because this likely caused more RMA requests and tech support calls.
