Specs to your current build? List them like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:

If your specs are that which are listed in your sig, please find the time to include specs to your thread since the solution to this thread can and will become irrelevant to anyone else in the same boat as you, once you change the specs in your sig space. Sig specs will change over time.

Which BIOS version were you on prior? Bent pins on the processor? Try and replace the old processor, update BIOS(if any pending) and then drop the 3700x in.

Clear the CMOS like this:

• Unplug the PC (PSU).
• Then press the Power Button for at least 30 seconds.

(the on board ROG LEDs will sometimes flash after 20-30 seconds to show that all power has been drained from the board).

• Use a flat headed screwdriver to short the CLR CMOS (CLRTC) Jumper (Touch both jumper pins with the screwdriver) for at least 15 seconds.
• Plug the PC back in.
• Press the Power Button to turn the PC on.
• Repeatedly tap the DEL key
• A screen should come up telling you to press the F1 key, do that.
• Set the Optimized Default settings and Press OK (this is on the EXIT tab)
• Save and exit the BIOS.
• Tap the DEL key again to enter the BIOS and change any settings you want changed then save and exit again.

Should I reinstall cpu?

Yes...I would remove it and re-install to make sure it's properly seated.
