Hello. I recently assembled my brand new machine using these exact details: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/SyndicateB...iew=XLWdqs. The problems I’m encountering are: 1. Occasionally the system fails to boot for extended periods—screen remains black while fans spin nonstop, and I suspect the two bottom LED indicators are malfunctioning, especially during the boot process. 2. Pressing the power button now takes less time than before, but when turning it on, the MOBO status LEDs flicker rapidly. I’ve shared two videos to illustrate this issue and the high fan activity (100% fans). 3. Performance under benchmark tests is significantly below expectations, even at 1080p resolution—I intend to run higher-resolution tests at 1440p. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Do you have the newest BIOS installed? AM5 models often experience extended startup times when using DDR5 RAM because of memory training during each boot. Previously, systems needed about 5 to 6 minutes to power on, but newer BIOS updates have improved this performance.

It seems your device isn't meeting expectations, and the status light is showing irregular behavior. Could you clarify what specifically isn't working?

I regret trying to concentrate on just one issue and providing details about a specific problem instead of offering a comprehensive solution. I should be knowledgeable about everything. Could you share the exact scores you’re using and the programs involved? Also, is RAM EXPO currently active for the X3D CPU? And could you confirm the BIOS version 1.21 for your motherboard?

Oh, I see what’s going on. I wasn’t trying to upset you. The EXPO is happening. I’m using the newest driver for my B650m PRO RS WIFI motherboard, which is currently labeled as a beta version. I’m checking my PC’s performance—like FPS and frame rates—against benchmarks from YouTube videos that match my setup, including my friends’ systems. It turns out my machine struggles even at 1080p! Sorry for the confusion—I didn’t intend to annoy you.
