Question Ryzen 7 2700x won't boot up with b350m

[Orceptix]

I just upgrade from a ryzen 3 to ryzen 7 2700x, there's no debug let's, everything has power but it won't boot. What's wrong?

Do you have a current BIOS in the B350? If you had a first generation Ryzen but never updated the BIOS, you could have an OLD incompatible BIOS. The B450 was the motherboard that launched with guaranteed Ryzen 2xxx compatibility.
According to this page -- https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/B350M-GAMING-PRO#support-cpu you need the 2F BIOS for compatibility.

Last time I updated the bios was 2 years ago, would it still be compatible?

I don't know. I guessed as to your motherboard (based on the b350m). If I guessed right then you can use that link. If not, provide a make and model for your motherboard. All manufacturers have similar listings.

No... Your BIOS is too old... You will need to put back your old CPU and update the BIOS before you can use the new CPU...
