Hello, I've encountered a recurring problem across three PC builds, beginning with the first one. The setup includes an MSI MGP550M, XP Pylon 650W, 5700X3D, 32GB DDR4 RAM (4 sticks), RTX 4070 Eagle. My machine would randomly freeze during the VGA boot process—lighting up but then crashing at the VGA stage. I visited the unit and replaced the GPU with an RTX 4070 Super. The issue continued. I installed a new motherboard (TUF B550M), upgraded the PSU (Core Reactor 650W), swapped the RAM kit, and even changed the SSDs for testing. Still, the problem persisted. I then swapped the entire PC and it kept happening. Recently, I replaced my monitor and TV, but they still caused crashes. The issue seems consistent across builds. My peripherals are all USB devices (three total). Are there any components or settings that might be triggering this? Could the line filter affecting the monitor interfere with the VGA light? Or are the USB devices responsible? Is there another factor I should investigate? Thanks.
