    [SOLVED] CPU Upgrade Gone Wrong?

    Thank you for this... I'm going to try to do BIOS updates in sequence So an update here: I was able to return and exchange the 3700X for a new one to rule out a bad chip. It's still giving me the DRAM error light. I found the SKU for my RAM kit and it is: CMW16GX4M2C3200C16 ver 5.32 I...

    [SOLVED] CPU Upgrade Gone Wrong?

    Thank you for the recommendation! I put the 2600 back in so I could access the BIOS, and then set it to an XMP profile for 3200 MHZ RAM and nothing changed once I put the 3700x back in. I also have a set of Patriot Viper 4 RAM that I have access to and they won't work either. I just left for...

    Thank you for the tip! I tried this just now and I also booted into the BIOS (with the 2600 inserted) and manually reset the BIOS and neither option helped :-(

    Question MSI B450M Tomahawk no HDMI, help!

    I'm not using any audio device currently, but I've plugged headphones in and the audio out jack does work. I'm even fine without sound over hdmi if I can't get that, but I have absolutely no video output.
