Hi guys,

Would really appreciate any advice on my issue as it's a bit of an odd one. I cannot find the issue.

About 2 months ago my pc failed to post. I had a "pc mate" mobo and a Ryzen 1600. After some research and trying all the usual stuff (reset CMOS etc), I got AMD to RMA my CPU and send me a new one.

This solved the issue and I got back up and running - for 48 hours. Then the same issue happened again.

My next hypothesis was that is was a bad mobo so I replaced the pc mate with a b450 tomahawk max. Again, this solved the issue.

That was about a month ago and now I went to turn on the computer today and I have the same old issue.

As I said, I've tried all the usual stuff with reseating everything, clearing the CMOS, updating the mobo bios, just using 1 stick of ram.

Anyone got any ideas or do I just have a ghost in my system?
