Problem: I'm building a pc and I'm having issues with booting with the 5700 xt. Card isn't recognized by bios, but a different card is.
Specs:
Motherboard: MSI B550-a-pro
BIOS: 7C56vA9 link -> https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B550-A-PRO/support
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: XFX AMD Radeon 5700 xt
RAM: 16GB DDR4 3200Mhz
PSU: EVGA 850P2
I cannot get computer to boot with the above card. EZ debug light is solid white above VGA indicator, meaning card isn't recognized. There is no signal to monitor. I do not have integrated graphics, hdmi cable is connected to GPU. The GPU's fans and lights power on, all power connectors are connected. Card is fully seated, etc. I've tried setting PCI to Gen 3 in BIOS but still no boot with the 5700 xt and updating to most recent bios.
I had an extra card lying around, so I tried booting with an RX 580, and everything works perfectly, so I know the problem is not the pci slot. Does this mean the card is bricked? I am unable to test with a different motherboard. I would rather use 5700 xt as it is more powerful card. Is there anything else I can try? Thanks for any advice.
