Hey, Built this PC about 2 weeks ago (ignore the messy cabling, still waiting to get a fan) with all new parts. However, noticed a couple issues which seem to be related. 1. After being idle and the screens turning off (as per power options), I am unable to wake the monitors again. Running dual monitor, but whenever I shake my mouse to turn them back on, it just stays black, meaning I have to shut down the pc from the power button. 2. System sometimes doesn't boot. I've had multiple cases where the pc either freezes and crashes while logging in to Windows, or just after. It freezes for a bit, then the monitors go black like the previous case. 3. After putting pc to sleep, I am usually unable to turn it on. I'm gonna be a bit specific here, but I'm not sure if it will help. I have a H510 case, and when I came back after putting the pc to sleep, the power button light was on. Not blinking, not off, just constantly on. I tried pressing the button to wake it up, and it then started blinking without turning on. My ram lights and GPU light stays on whenever it is on sleep, but pressing the button doesn't do anything. Also, holding the power button to shut down the pc doesn't work either, I have to flick it off at the PSU switch. If I press the mouse buttons, it lights up, but not the keyboard. I've also noticed the CPU motherboard light is active on my motherboard. Faulty CPU? Faulty Mobo? Have I plugged something I'm wrong? Once the pc is on and running, it is fine, even playing games. I've looked on the internet but I haven't found anything that has worked, or even any similar cases. If I'm wrong, let me know, but I am very stuck, as I'm also pretty new to computers. Any help would be appreciated, thanks . Specs: Ryzen 5 5600 2x8gb Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro White 3600mhz C18 Msi MAG B550m Mortar Wifi motherboard. Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1tb Gigabyte 5600xt gpu Corsair CV650 PSU H510 case (not elite or flow, the one with the fully white, non glass front) Glorious Model o- mouse, razer huntsman mini keyboard Thanks

Enable xmp, pick 3200mhz manually, and verify stability.
