[SOLVED] ASUS B550-F mobo : VGA and BOOT lights stay lit, PC will not boot ?

[XpertNoob-YT]

Just bought a Asus B550-F installed all the parts Ryzen 7 5800X, Corsair Vengeance Pro SL DDR4 3200 MHz 32 gig, EVGA GTX1070, EVGA 710 PSU, and 2 Samsung SATA SSD's. Now the GPU, PSU, and SSD's work they are being used in the PC I'm using to post this.
When I power up the new set up the VGA and Boot light stay on (white and Yellow). It will not boot up and I'm getting no video out put from the GPU. I've cleared the CMOS, changed the RAM around (it was in DIMM 2 and 4 at the start), changed out GPU's gone down
to just the main boot SSD and all, but still will not boot. I'm at a loss on this one. Maybe one of yall might know what went wrong. Thanks

Do you know what BIOS version your motherboard is currently running? It may need to be updated to run the 5800X?

It's the factory BIOS. Never thought it would need to be updated being this new.

I believe the newer manufactured B550 boards will have the BIOS to run 5000 series cpu's but most,( especially here in the UK,) are still only 3rd gen ready and need the update.

Just got my 3rd MB today. Updated the BIOS, and still the same issue.

I returned the 3rd MB and bought a MSI B550. Been running fine since I did that.

I might have something for this. I had several issues similar to this and eventually couldn't even get into the bios anymore. I have the B550-F, 5900X, and a GTX 1080. What I did was plug my GPU in the second PCIx16 slot. That let me get into the bios again. Then I manually set the top PCIx16 slop from AUTO to GEN3. All my problems went away. I don't have a newer GPU to test, but I'd assume manually setting it from AUTO to GEN4 would also do the trick in that case.

I tried that as well. Since the tech help side of ASUS is lacking techs to help with this issue, I went to MSI for a MB as stated above.
