I'm upgrading from a Ryzen 7 2700x to a Ryzen 9 5900x, PC turns on but doesn't give any signal to monitors/mouse/keyboard/etc with the Ryzen 9.
I'm using the exact same setup with the new CPU as the old one, but I've tried the two motherboards and two types of ram listed below.
All the combinations of ram and motherboards work with the 2700x except with MSI x570 and the DDR4-3600 for some reason.
The latest bios was flashed after installing the 5900x in the b550. My first instinct is that the bios is causing the issue, but I'm not really sure how it could be and I don't know my way around the bios well enough to mess with it too much.
There is also no visible damage to the cpu, I've examined it closely and carefully and it at least appears to be in perfect condition to me.
Could the CPU be defective from the supplier (amazon)? I assume not though, and it's probably just something I've messed up on.
I am currently using the PC with the Ryzen 7 2700x and it is working normally.
Specs:
Motherboard: MSI B550 tomahawk (or MSI X570 gaming plus, which is what I had before)
RAM: 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4-3600 (or DDR4-3200)
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER
PSU: EVGA 750 GQ
OS: Windows 10
I appreciate any help, thanks.
