When I press <del> at the AMI set up page it sometimes (maybe 1 in 10 times) will say "entering set up..." but then nothing happens for hours. There is a red light on the vga sensor on the mother board. What I have done so far: unplug and plug everything, reseated GPU, double checked ram position (2&4), full turn on and off multiple times, turned monitor on first, then second (it seems to register this one screen better if it's on before the system), played with hdmi placement and dp cords, I've read the manual for the case, the motherboard, and the gpu, and last I gave the CLR_CMOS jumper a gentle nudge to see if a reset would change anything (nothing happened). Everything turns on when I turn on when I boot it up but I can't make it to the bio/driver/anything set up. I even tried to use the Windows OS usbdrive (purchased, not created myself) at a few starts in hopes it would trigger something, nadda. Took 1 ram out and tried to boot it up because I saw someone online do something similar, nadda. I submitted a ticket with Gigabyte and am awaiting a reply.
New build, all new parts:
MB : GIGABYTE B650 AORUS Elite AX ICE (AM5/ LGA 1718/ AMD/ B650/ ATX
Storage : SAMSUNG 990 EVO SSD 1TB, PCIe Gen 4x4
Ram : CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16)
CPU : AMD Ryzen 7 7700 8-Core
CPU cooler : NZXT Kraken Elite 360mm RGB AIO CPU Liquid Cooler
Power supply : CORSAIR RM Series (2021), White, RM850, 850 Watt, 80 Plus Gold Certified, Fully Modular Power Supply
GPU : PowerColor Hellhound Sakura AMD Radeon 7800 XT 16GB GDDR6 Graphics Card
Case : Hyte y70 without graphics panel
Here is my planned course of action, in order (if the step before doesn't work I'll move to the next):
1. Replace the PCIE cable so it's not a ponytail cable (I already ordered it for aesthetics so this ones already in motion/low stakes)
2. Await a couple days to hear back from Gigabyte esupport
3. Perform a bios flash update in hopes that that gets the Motherboard to where it needs to be (I've considered it's bios is too outdated to function)
4. Replace GPU
5. Replace the Hytes built in riser cable
6. Get a new motherboard all together lol (Asrock most likely)
Anything tips or feedback you have is very welcome. I am new to the game and have been working on this project for over a month now... I just want to enjoy my first real computer. :') Also feel free to lmk if you approve of this plan, it's the best I could come up with watching videos/articles/manuals. Thanks !
