Question Why is my system not booting?

[XParadox]

I have a Ryzen 5 3600x with a ROG strix b-450-f a GTX 1660 super and oloy 32gb of 3600mzh ram

Does the motherboard have the required BIOS version installed to support the 3rd generation Ryzen (2301 or higher)?

Is this a new build? Has it ever worked? That motherboard may need a BIOS update to support the 3600x.

It’s says Ryzen 3000 compatible does this mean I still need to update?

Thank you this is a new build and has never worked. The fans don’t spin neither do I hear any beeps

Do any LEDs light on the motherboard? Is the PSU toggle switch in the ON position (back of PSU)?

Maybe, you need the proper version installed BEFORE you can use the 3rd gen CPU.

Yes the psu is on the mobo lights up but there are no beeps or led indicators

Do you have access to an earlier generation AM4 CPU to use to update (verify) the BIOS version?

"Ryzen 3000 compatible" is not the same as "Ryzen 3000 Ready". It just mean that you can put a Ryzen 3000 on that board. Still need a BIOS update tho.

 

[COLGeek]

Are both the 24-pin and 8-pin motherboard power connections firmly attached?

 

[XParadox]

"Ryzen 3000 compatible" is not the same as "Ryzen 3000 Ready".

It’s says “AMD RYZEN 3000 DESKTOP READY”

No I asked Newegg and some stores around me but none are willing to loan me an old cpu or update the bios for me

Look for a Micro Center near you. They can help with this for a small fee.

I saw a few board like yours that needed a BIOS update even with the ready on the box.

You can use the https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/faq/pa-100#faq-Short-Term-Processor-Loan-Boot-Kit

AMD will send you one that you can use and you have to return it after that.

Sadly it seems my board is one of them

You should be able to schedule an appointment with them to check this for you. Only takes a couple minutes.

No idea sorry. I guess the same time it takes for a normal shipping? Sorry I can't help further. Never used this before.
