Your computer isn't recognizing the new processor and the memory stays active.
Your PC runs an i5-7640x but isn't recognizing the new i9-10900x. After trying several steps—swapping RAM, resetting CMOS, updating BIOS—the issue persists. The motherboard is compatible with the i9. Please confirm if the CPU and other components match your system requirements.
I verified the details on my motherboard, and the support confirms compatibility.
This model is the i9-10900 X, not the updated i9-10900 K. The i9-10900X uses the X299/LGA 2066 Extreme chipset. @MihaiOG which BIOS version are you using? The i9-10900X needs the most recent BIOS version F8l; F8k isn't available in the download section.
I received the newest BIOS update and performed the installation last night.
