Alright,

ASRock X570M Pro4
3700x
5700 (red devil - three fans)

Fresh build, everything booted correctly, windows installed, played some fortnite.

After about an hour, restarted it for some updates, no post.

I'm pretty sure it is the gpu, I just wanted to ask what you thought because it's gonna be annoying for me to find another gpu to troubleshoot it.

So far:
  • booted without sata connections/keyboard/ etc.
  • tried 1 stick of ram (3200) on boot/ tried each stick individually (A2, 2nd from cpu)
  • replaced psu cables for the gpu (tried individual 6 pin and 8 pin cables)
  • tried two different displays + all outputs (HDMI / DP etc)
  • Re-seated everything multiple times
  • cleared cmos (took out battery, unplugged psu, hit power button, left battery out etc.)
  • tried both pci lanes
  • re- seated the cpu
  • VGA and boot lights on ezdebug on start (i herd if the MB doesn't detect integrated GPU (APU) it will light VGA)
  • tried another powersupply

  • Replaced motherboard (brand new one)
  • After replacing MB I did all the above steps again, so it isnt the MB, or I am extremely unlucky.
The GPU lights up and everything
Fans spin on and off

I just cant believe it died so quickly


Any ideas?

Thanks

Well, I answered my own question I guess. It was the GPU. Can't believe it died just like that.

Feel free to delete this thread, apologize for wasting anyone's time.
