Question Changed out CPU now computer turns off after 20 seconds

[daxter316]

Changed out my old and Ryzen 2700x for a new 5950x and the computer will only stay on for about a minute before just shutting off unless its on the blue recovery screen it sits at the screen with no issues but when I continue and start it up all the way it will just shut off again

What is the make/model of your motherboard? Also, what make/model is your CPU cooler?

When you installed the new CPU, did you also reset your BIOS to its default state?

Did you verify that the BIOS supported the 5950 before swapping? Did you verity that the 5950 was supported at all on your motherboard ?

240mm Addressable RGB Liquid Cooling System couldn't tell you the make it was a prebuilt computer before I changed out the gpu and added the extra ram but I've had everything else working for the last few years

Yes it was the best one my motherboard supported and I updated the bios a few hours prior to installing the new chip

On the top left of that board, right above that large heat-shield are 2 headers. A 8pin and a 4pin. The 5950 can well demand that both are populated as those are the EPS supplementary cpu power connectors. If that 600w psu doesn't have 2x 4+4pin EPS/CPU or at least 1x 4+4pin and additional 4pin, the cpu might not accept the mobo.

It's got 2 4+4 and the last 4 pin is open and now the PC won't even go through the boot process and put anything on my screen but is still shutting off just the same

Will the rig boot properly with the original CPU? Did you install the beta BIOS version?

Nope there's a failure to boot period with either CPU and if that's the newest version that turns it grey instead of red yes
