Hey all, first post here.
I've combed through the forums as best i could before posting but couldn't find anything exactly matching my situation.
I built my PC last year and it was working fine for a few months and then if i restarted it intermittently wouldn't post and would give a B2 fault on the mobo and the white VGA light would be illuminated.
I've chatted with ASUS and they had me try with 1 stick of ram in slot 1 and then slot 3, the tech said there was a problem with the mobo so ASUS RMA'd it and sent me a replacement. when the replacement arrived i had the same problem on the first boot.
Also tried reseating the GPU, and using another PCI slot.
I've tried removing all peripherals
flashing bios
updating drivers
Its so confusing because the problem is intermittent. Any help would be appreciated. Please let me know if i can provide any more info to help.

GPU: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5700XT Gaming OC 8G
RAM: Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200 2x8gb
