I have upgraded my CPU from a Ryzen 5 5600x to a Ryzen 7 5700x3D, no other components were changed in this process. Computer did not post, so I reset CMOS, which changed nothing. I then checked my RAM one stick at a time just in case to no avail. I then saw online that it might be because of my motherboard's BIOS being updated. I believed that mine was, but I tried to install the latest version via Q-flash+ before changing back to my old CPU anyways. This did not work and I was unable to get the motherboard to recognize the USB, indicated by three flashes and it hanging on the third until restarted. I then gave up on getting the new CPU to work and went through the hassle of reinstalling the old CPU. This also did not post and I became worried that something else had gone wrong. I tried resetting the CMOS again and it still didn't post. I then took apart the entire computer and rebuilt it again only to have the same issue. And now here I am, posting on a forum for any other suggestions before I end up buying a new motherboard before switching to AM5.
