I recently assembled a PC using components from my previous setup (EVGA 1080 GTX) and some new purchases. I ordered a Gigabyte B650 EAGLE AX, silicone power supply 32 (16x2) DDR5 6000, and a Ryzen 7800x3D. After testing, everything seems compatible, though I’ve noticed similar issues with others and some claiming it works. I’ve experimented by placing the RAM sticks one at a time in various slots and swapping them, but nothing changed. My monitor powers on with the GPU but doesn’t receive any signal. The cooler and fans also activate. I attempted to enable the RAM train, but after about five minutes the system powers off. This computer is essential for work, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Additionally, I’ve tried updating the BIOS to both the latest and older versions. The Qflash light flashes rapidly at first, then slows, follows a pattern, and eventually turns off, but the PSU remains unresponsive.

Consider inspecting your board for any bent pins in the CPU socket. Have you performed a CMOS reset before?
