I built a new PC with the following specs:
Motherboard: B650E Steel Legend
CPU: R5 7600
RAM: 2x16GB F5-6000J3040F16GX2-RS5K
PSU: RM850e
GPU: 6700XT
After turning it on, there's no display and the CPU & DRAM LEDs are solid Red and blinking red respectively. I left the whole setup alone for 15 mins, but nothing changed.
NOTE: I should mention that I am not using the PSU power cable that came with the RM850e as it doesn't fit into any of my wall sockets. I'm using my older PSU's (VS450) power cable. I hope that isn't what's causing these issues.
Here's what I've tried so far:
1. Reseated my CPU and RAM
2. Tried booting with only 1 stick of RAM in all the slots. Tried the same with the other stick
3. Disconnected GPU and connected the HDMI to the iGPU
4. Reset the BIOS by removing CMOS battery and reinserting 5 mins later
Could it be faulty RAM, or bad CPU? Or could it be a that the motherboard is bad?
Completely stuck right now so any help on how to proceed from here would be appreciated, thanks.
